New Zealand is multi-cultural which means there are a lot of different people from different countries who are living in Aotearoa. They bring with them their special culture, language, clothing, religion, food and ways of doing things.
On Race Relations Day we looked at a world map to see where some people are from in Room 10.
We found Fiji, China, India, Korea, South Africa, Sudan, Nepal and Egypt.
12 people in Room 10 can speak another language than English and some go to a special school to learn in their home language. Other languages they can speak are Arabic, Afrikaans, Korean, Nepalese, Chinese, Hindi and Fijian.
We were lucky to have some Japanese students come and visit us at school. Here are a few photos of our afternoon.
