Highlight of my Holiday

The highlight of my holiday was the YWCA Camp that I had participated in during the first 3 days of the holidays (Tuesday the 2rd - Thursday the 4th). Which is where we met other young girls around the age of 13/14/15 within four other schools, along with doing activities to get to know each other and even ourselves, and being able to be more confident in yourself.

Ways I can make sure I can get the most out of 2018! 

Make sure that I achieve all my goals that I have set for myself. Along with improving some of my skills within all the subjects I take! Along with becoming more confident with myself. I’d also like to take every opportunity that is given to me so that I am able to make the most of 2018.

UDHR Inquiry - Paige Paraha

UDHR Inquiry
The unit is about Human Rights. It is about the individual rights, everyone person has, along with the 30
rules/laws/rights we are given, equally, made by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I chose Article 20, because I thought of it being more interesting to learn more about, learning about
both the positive and negative actions that are related to this article. It means that everyone has equal
rights of being able to belong to a peaceful society, people around me like my friends, family, and even
myself to not be forced and/or “tricked” into doing things they don't want to do or join, such as a a gang,
group (cliques) etc. The effect it has on society, is that everyone is given the right to assembly and
association. Such as given the right to participate, or with hold a protest against anyone within reason to
make this world a better place for every individual person, but at the same time protests can be turned
down, and end up having innocent people thrown into jail.


E.g (Positive/Successful Protest)
White Ribbon is a protest that is held in New Zealand every year, against abuse caused by men toward
women. This is a very successful protest that is held.

Be given a law where protests, strikes, etc can be held in a peaceful way and/or assemblies and/or
associations, so they are given their rights, without them being breached or taken away from them.

Paige's Well-Being



Mental/Emotional:
Will was overjoyed when he recieve tickets from Uncle Phil, but turned it down and had to confess to having the pills in his locker. It made him extremely upset that it got to a point where he almost killed Carlton, because he had the pills in his locker. He broke down in tears appologies for what he had done, knowing that he could have lost someone he loved some much. 

The reason this affects Mental and Emotional because he was upset and broken down for what he had done. Because when you cry and feel guilty about something it has a huge impact on your mental and emotional well-being... which is why this affects this well-being. This is positive affect because he had confessed and let off his chest that it was his locker that the pills had came from but then a it could have torn the family appart, because for most troubling kids it wouldn't be easy for them to tell their parents or loved ones about what they've done, but because he was strong enough to tell them he was able to be brave and do the right thing. It was also a positive affect on his well-being because he was able to be honest and true to himself, and let out the love that he has for his Cousin, which is why it affects Mental and Emotional because of the mental progress of having to push himself to tell his Uncle, and his cousin of his wrong doings. 

Social Well-Being

Will had felt that he had broken up the family, that he could have lost someone so close to him whom could have ended up dead. Everyone in his family had a close relationship, but because he had told Uncle Phil and his family that it was him who's locker the pills had came from, he had to appologies... To not ruin the relationship they all had.

This affects Social Well-being because social can relate to family and friends, and because he could have lost his Cousin whom meant so much to him, it affects one of the walls of Hauora, which leads all of the walls to colapses. He was angry and upset, because he wasn't the only that was mad and upset but so was his Uncle Phil and the other family members.
