Kate Sheppard
Hello everyone,
Today I am talking about Kate Sheppard and about how she helped get to women to vote, I have write a paragraph about Kate Sheppard and the women rights so here you go-
Where was Kate Sheppard born?-
In Liverpool,England in 1847.
Why do you think Kate Sheppard was placed on the New Zealand $10 note?-
Because she placed a petition for women to vote to stop the woman suffrage and New Zealand appreciated it.
WCTU Stands for?-
Women's Christian Temperance Union.
What were three actions Kate Sheppard took in her quest for women to have the right to vote?
1.In 1845 she joined the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU).
2.Kate Sheppard travelled all over New Zealand writing to newspapers, holding public meetings and talking to Members of Parliament.
3.She wrote a petition for men and women to write in the petition that was signed by 32,000 people.

The Weeknd
Hello everyone,
Today I am going talk about what we are doing in our music hurumanu about Famous Musicians. I picked The Weeknd because his songs are catchy and they are such nice songs to listen to when you are doing something else other than listening to music etc... Gaming, Working. So here is a little bit of work I did about him...
Name:The Weeknd AKA Abel Makkonen Tesfaye
Age:31
Decade popular: Still Popular
Genre:R&B/Soul
The Weeknds most famous songs are:
1.Blinding Lights
2.StarBoy
3.The Hills
4.Can’t Feel My Face
5. Earned It
How the Weeknd got famous:He got his start by releasing music anonymously online.
In 2010, Abel uploaded a few songs to YouTube anonymously. He posted his music under the name “The Weeknd,” which would become the name under which he rose to fame.
A challenge The Weeknd had to overcome: Dropping out, and leaving his family was one of the most difficult decisions he has made, because he would be separated himself from his family, and becoming independent and raising himself, which is a lot to take on at such a young age.
