Today at school I read an article about the pole tax that Chinese New Zealanders had to pay before they entered the country. They had to pay poll tax because the government back then was really racist.
It was a really interesting story to read. It was interesting to read because I was interested in the way the government used to treat people.

TONGA!!! - Presentation
This term our inquiry topic was about Tonga.
We learned about the different ways of living. It was really interesting to look at the differences.
We worked together in groups. Thank you Fakaola, Liza and Mary-Ruth for helping me with the presentation. I learnt a lot about Tonga like, the old capital city of Tonga is Lapaha, and that's where my poppa comes from.
