Dear Ms Gutchlag
Thanks so much for teaching me this year. I think I have learned heaps this year, thanks to you.
I really enjoyed learning about all the human rights and doing the human rights assessment. I loved watching all the movies; whale rider, the boy in striped pajamas, the persuit of happiness. I also enjoyed the study on a country because I found that really interesting.

Celabrations- due 9/11
In my family, it is tradition for us to all go down to the batch and celebrate New Years together.
The Romans dedicated New Years day to Janus, god of gates, doors and new beginnings. The month of January was named after Janus, who had two faces, one looking forward and the other looking backward. This suggests that New Year's celebrations are founded on pagan traditions. There are many different cultures that celebrate New Years for example, The Chinese New Year, Hindu, Islamic, Israel... etc.
The New Years is traditionally greeted with fireworks and bonfires. In the United Kingdom there are many celebrations across the towns and cities, particularly in Scotland. In London, England, thousands gather along the Embankment on the River Thames to watch the fireworks around the London Eyes. In Scotland, there are many special customs associated with the New Year. These are a part of the Scottish celebration Hogmanay, the Scots name for New Year's Eve. The famous street party in Princess Street in Edinburgh is one example. In Wales, their New Years is celebrated, with celebrations attracting thousands of people in the capital.
Every year, all 22 of us travel to Onemana (in the coromandel, near whangamata) to count down the seconds until the New Year. We all stay up until midnight, waiting for the last seconds of the year and when it comes, we count it down. It is also tradition for one of us to blow a big horn, announcing the new year. Pretty much the whole of Onemana waits for our horn to blow... We also let off some fireworks on the cold sack in the middle of the road. New Years is definitely a time for the family and I all way look food to New Years at the batch!
