Chapter 1 - My Country

In my country it is so hot that we have to wear ragged clothes. I hate wearing my ragged clothes.We have to go places in bare feet. Being barefoot hurts a lot because our ground is made out of concrete.
Sylvia, Dylen
In the city there isn’t enough concrete to fill in the huge gaps. Sometimes people fall in those gaps and hurt themselves because there isn’t anyone fixing it.
Reuben, Kahu
I live in a horrible apartment in the middle of this polluted city.Our apartment is really filthy and old, we have a little bed which I have to share with my little sister. It’s really hot in the apartment, so we have to open all the windows all the time, but all the polluted gas comes into the room which makes us cough.
Jeevan, Noah
In my country flowers are polluted because the  pollutants are affecting our trees and flowers. It is so bad people are dying. The pollution is killing our kids, birds and many other animals.
Presley, Petera
I live in a country with so many, people. The roads are always blocked and the supermarkets are packed. Everywhere you go, you’ll find yourself surrounded by strangers.Even trying to find my mother in the carpark, is like searching for a slice of cheese in a hay- stack.
Maasoama
The lonely streets are left empty at night because if the big bad police see anyone on the street without a street ticket that you get from the ticket booth 16 kilometers away, they won’t waste time they will just shoot you down.
Jumaanah, Masiha
It is really hot and it is hard for me to find water. While I am in the desert I would travel on some camels if I want to get some water.
Mayleen, Khin Hla
I never get to go to the church because the only people we are allowed to  worship is the cruel and nasty government. The only reason I never get to go to church is because I never got the freedom from the government.
Thomas, Shireen
We use pencil and paper for our education. It is so hard to write with pencil on paper. We don’t have any playgrounds we just run around or play tag.
Caroline, Ala
The food here is sometimes yuck and sometimes yum but usually Dry. We always have Rice with some kind of Deadly meat. It sometimes takes awhile to find some food.
Isaac, Setu
In my country Not many people can find a job and there aren’t that many jobs in the city which means we’re poor.
Honey K, Angela
I am so poor that I have to share my things with my brothers and sisters. My parents cannot afford any new clothes to wear.  I wish that we were rich so my parents can afford new clothes for my whole family.
Fardosa, Abdul

Our Buddy Caesar

Hello! My name is Caesar and I am Room 15's newest buddy!  Over the last few weeks Room 15 have brought me to life, writing my story. We all have a story and I am looking forward to sharing mine with the world.  Room 15 are a digital class so I am pretty excited that I have my own special page on the blog to record my journey.

My story begins in a country called Lythopia where I lived with my family (you can read more about them in the chapters below). Please share your stories in the comments below. Maybe you have come from another country or can relate to some of the things that I share. Remember to to comment in a positive, kind and friendly way.

Chris taught us how to cook some healthy crepes using vegetables from the school garden.

After we had tasted the crepes we gave the thumbs up or down to show whether we liked the taste or not.
