Election Day


It was Election Day here in Room 6. Yesterday all the parties presented their arguments why people should vote for them, showcasing the policies they had developed and taking questions from the audience. This morning everyone grabbed a voting slip and lined up to make their vote.

After go his everyone put their vote into the ballot box.


In the end we had equal votes for two of our political parties. Both UNIque, whose policies were all about our school UNIform, and JELO, who wanted a new look to the classroom won. The class now needs to come to some sort of compromise with these policies. Next week we will be reflecting on our campaigns, what we did well, what we could have done better and why we voted the way we did.

Here are the ads.
