Revolution Tour Writing

    REVOLUTION TOUR - WRITING
Pt England School was lucky enough to be invited to watch an amazing show. The year 7 and 8 students got to watch them perform for us at 2.00pm as a group. And their group name is the “Revolution team” They were on a tour all around the world to tell people a story of what “Tiaki Taonga” means to us and what our school needs to focus on.

The first thing that they showed us when we were entering in the hall, they introduced themselves to us, and then they offered to sing a song to us. The song was called “Roar by Katy Perry”. And they sang it wonderful it actually sounded like they were the real singer, well close very close. After about 10 minutes they finally showed us an important story (Legend) that meant “never ever feel lonely, if you are always ask for help and never be mean or quite selfish to knew people”.

What they did is they went on stage and set up the story, and began to tell the story of when a man first started school. There was a young boy who really hasn’t seen people like this, and he was hoping that it would be a wonderful day of his life. “But” when he arrived at school he got bullied only because he was wearing a pink T-shirt. So these two mean boys came over and “pushed him real hard, and it made him get a bad bruise on his leg”. “This is when the story actually begins, and what you guys should be doing when someone is in trouble”.

Then after a while these two young and responsible kind and generous men, come over and help him up to see if he is alright. “Know I am not alright, I just got humiliated in front of the entire school. “But thank you for helping me guys, I appreciate it”. So they went home and started chatting to each other on facebook, slipping texts to each other on their phones. Now what those two boys did is they texted a message to every single person who goes to his school and asked everyone if they could where a pink T-shirt tomorrow. Then asked the young boy who got humiliated, to wear that pink T-shirt again tomorrow,  just come to school in that pink T-shirt and I promises you will not get embarrassed tomorrow.

That is what the Revolution group arrived to our school for, only to show us what we should be thinking about doing in the future. And I bet today people have realized that what they are doing is not themselves and that they would need to do a big change if they want to go far, in the future. So if you have been bullying people a lot lately don’t blame your self, just ask people for help and you will change. And if you are being bullied just walk away or tell that person for help and you will end up being a hero.
