Hedgehogs
In class we are learning about abuse. Abuse is when somebody has POWER over another person and causes them HARM. Types of abuse are neglect, emotional, physical, cyber, sexual and family violence. We read a story about a boy being hit by his dad for being late home. The boy was late home because he found a potato, then a matchstick, then other bits and pieces, and stopped to make a hedgehog. We made hedgehogs as we reflected on the story.

Junior Camp
All junior students attended a two day camp at Lake Kaniere this week. The weather was sunny and hot but the morning was really really cold. Students enjoyed making damper and cooking over the open fire. Maple syrup ensured that the damper was spectacularly delicious. Students made rafts and raced them. The team of Charlotte, Connor Reid, Khaya, Connor Greig and Hugo won our class race. Students loved the free swimming and would have liked more time. There was not much sleep to be had, and many students are home today catching up on sleep.

Redcross Raffle
In Room 4 at Westland High School students had a raffle to raise money for bikes for resettled refugees in Nelson. The men need a bike to get to their job because their don't have a New Zealand driving licence. We raised $650 dollars and we are really proud of it.
