I was running into the forest and I felt the nature around me. It was the Forest of the Lost. I was walking alone. I felt my legs shaking and fear flowed throughout my body as I remembered my family problems at home.
My family problems started when we got low on supplies and money. I felt my family was tearing apart. I was calm but sad at the same time. I helped my family by making and selling wood sculptures to earn money. I felt happy and stress-free. We now had enough money to buy supplies.
Now I walk through the Forest of the Lost but I'm no longer lost. I'm feeling alive and free knowing that poverty is no longer a problem for my family.
My Story based on the book
Aroha's Way
The Longest Walk
The Rapsey Family used the route Te Araroa, which means “The Long Pathway”. The Rapsey family started at Cape Reinga then finished at Bluff, the areas they passed through were Te Oneroa-a-Tohe on the 2nd day of their walk, Te Oneroa is a Ninety Mile Beach and has 88 kilometres of sand. Next they reached Tamaki Makaurau which is a major city in the north island of New Zealand. They then visited the Blue Lake, The Blue Lake has one of the clearest freshwater in the world even if the bottom of the lake is 70 metres deep, you can still see the bottom. The Rapsey Family stayed at Tramping Huts and houses. I think The Rapsey family is the first family who did the record breaking walk from Cape Reinga to Bluff.
Mophead by Selina Tusitala Marsh
Everyday kids in my school keep looking at me with weird faces, saying insulting stuff and bullying me... I haven't told anyone even my family about why I haven't cutted my hair. I had to go to a Restorative meeting with my mum and dad and one the bullies and her parents. The bully kept on lying and falsely to the given questions by the principal. So my teacher came in and heard every single answer of the bully, my teacher told the principal everything about the bully but the bully said, "where is the evidence?" My teacher showed them all the clips of the CCTV and that made the principal very angry and told the bully "YOU ARE EXPELLED FOR 5 DAYS!!!" The bully said "What?! That is so unfair! You should expel that girl for having big hair!!" The principal said "No, you shouldn't Judge people by their looks especially her! You are expelled for 5 days and that's final!" The bully and her parents left the meeting. I was happy because I will never get bullied by her again.
