Persistance

I persisted by training better and better at hockey in year 4 for our field days and then when I finally thought I couldnt do anymore I thought to myself "Do this for your team Havana" and then I persisted through the whole thing and we won two thirds of our games!

John Key & Persistance

John Key persisted by acknowledging that even though he was in the lower ranks of parliment he could get to the top and so by persisting he became prime minister. Congrats JK!!

CHILD LABOUR

In Room 1 this term we are studying about CHILD LABOUR.
CHILD LABOUR is more common than you think it is! It can be Factory working, mining, prostitution, argiculture and much more. You may think who cares? But this is a serious topic. Children who do CHILD LABOUR can start from the age 5 up to 14 years old. Imagine your little 8 year old brother mining in iron mines in India!! Countries that do have high CHILD LABOUR rates are India, Vietnam, Morocco, Latin America and many more countries. Between 40 and 50 percent of all slave workers are children and 1.2 million of those children have been tarfficked (sold or bought). The highest percentage of CHILD LABOUR is in sub-saharan Africa where 1 3rd of the children aged 14 and under are under the CHILD LABOUR force.
