“Refugee Rangers”

Dear Parents/ Caregivers

Your child has been given the task to find a problem in the community and take some action. We have chosen the problem of the refugees and that we believe they do not have any confidence in New Zealand. On the 7th of November from 1:25 – 5:00 The “Refugee Rangers” will be travelling to the Mangere bridge refugee centre to organise a fun day of sports and help the refugee’s with their English.

They will travel by van with PK driving

Yours The Refugee Rangers

**Questions To Ask The Refugee Center**

 * ==== ** Name ** ==== || ==== ** Question ** ==== || ==== ** Hypothesis ** ==== || ==== ** Answer ** ==== ||
 * ==== Simon ==== || ==== What Do the Refugees Enjoy Doing? ==== || ==== Playing Sport and having other fun ==== || ==== ====

The refugees enjoy to play sport and other ways of having fun. Most of the refugees enjoy going to school.
||
 * ==== Alex ==== || ==== How good Is the Refugee's English? ==== || ==== Very Poor ==== || ==== ====

Most of the refugee's English is very good because where they come from, they are taught a good amount of English.
||
 * ==== Stephen ==== || ==== Do you think That the refugees enjoy NZ more ====

than they did their original Country? Why?
|| ==== No because they are in a different place that they do not know. ==== || ==== ==== ==== Most of the refugees enjoy New Zealand more then their own country but still miss their country. They feel protected and safe which is the most important part. They feel safer because there are no people that are just going to come and shoot them or take away their parents. For the first few weeks they feel like a fish out of water. ==== ||
 * ==== Tommy ==== || ==== How long do the Refugees get to stay ====

In the refugee Camp?
|| ==== I think that the refugees get to stay in the camp for no longer than 2 weeks. ==== || ==== ==== ==== The refugees stay in the camp for 6 weeks and they go to school from 9 am until 2:30pm. During this time the camp sets up a bank account, organizes a house to stay in and find a local school for the refugees. ==== ||
 * ==== Henry ==== || ==== What food do the Refugee's Get at the camp? ==== || ==== I think that the refugees get bread and water or milk. They might also get canned food. ==== || ==== ====

The refugees get given kiwi food like the normal things that we eat every day. Sometimes they get a special treat of lasagna or macaroni cheese.
||
 * ==== Simon ==== || ==== What Does the camp do to give the refugees more confidence in New Zealand and how does the camp help with getting jobs and their own homes to live in? ==== || ==== I think that the refugees get a small amount of funds for them to leave the camp, and maybe they give them a government house, to live in for a while. ==== || ==== ====

The refugee get classes about New Zealand and the other skills to be able to work work such as laws etc. They also get classes on basic English and writing.
||
 * ==== Alex ==== || ==== Why Do the refugees flee to NZ? ==== || ==== Because of the political issues. ==== || ==== ====

The refugees simply have no choices. Other countries such as America, Australia, Denmark take refugees in but when they have no more vacancies, they send the refugees to NZ.
||
 * ==== Stephen ==== || ==== Can we help by donating Things like pens, pencils and books to the camp and help the refugees? ==== || ==== No because they don't want it. ==== || ==== ====

Yes we can help by donating anything except rugby balls(because most of the refugees don't know how to use them). they love football and volleyball and any other sport they can play.
|| ==== The refugees get to go to an AUT campus located in the camp. The campus have classes to help them with their English. They MUST attend unless sick in which they go to a doctors room. They go at normal school hours to get used to the school routine when they leave the camp. ==== ||
 * ==== Tommy ==== || ==== Do you have Stationary and other tools to help them with their English education ==== || ==== Only a few things, but not too many. ==== || ==== ====

**Personal Reflection**

 * ==== Date ==== || ==== Simon ==== || ==== Stephen ==== || ==== Alex ==== || ==== Tommy ==== || ==== Henry ==== ||
 * ==== 16/10 ==== || ==== Today I feel that everyone worked really well and that we achieved everything that we could. I feel that Stephen was sometimes off task a little but most of the time he was pretty good. Tonight I have had problems getting an email sent to our organizer ==== || ==== I think that I did fairly well ==== || ==== Hooray! We've got a led and a clustrmap! We have done very well in adding mountains of info 8/10 progress ==== || ==== Absent From Class (ESOL) ==== || ==== I think Simon ====

well today.

**Group Reflection**

 * ==== Date ==== || ==== Reflection ==== ||
 * ==== 16/10 ==== || ==== Today we did not fight at all. ====

We have all contributed in everything, We have written and sent an email to the organizer for our organisation.
||
 * ==== 17/10 ==== || ==== Today we have not done much to help with our issue because the email has still not sent and we have had nothing else to do ====

so we have just rearranged our website. Most of the inquiry time Stephen was off task and did not help at all.
||
 * ==== 21/10 ==== || ==== ====

|| Jambo! Salaam Aliekeim! Ming la ba! We found out that all the refugees enjoyed playing soccer. They are all great at their soccer skills and most of them would probably beat the school soccer team any day. Everyone communicated well even though they come from different countries such as Congo and Afganistan! ||
