Tupaia was a navigator and high priest from Raiatea; the second largest island in East Polynesia. He drew this picture of a Maori trading crayfish for tapa cloth with the British.

I made this postcard to my friend to share information from my learning about Jesus with her.

I made this map to show the locations of where a crowd of 200,000 people in 1940 walked all the way from Wellington to Central Auckland to transport New Zealand’s best Prime Minister, Michael Joseph Savage on the day of his funeral. He was so popular because he gave New Zealand free healthcare.
Racing in front of my house a warm burst of air hits my face. Looking to the right, fire grows higher than ever covering every corner and space of my friend’s house. A waft of smoke hits my nose as I stare at the fiery hut my friend and were dancing in.
Tearing up, I whimper and climb up a tall, light brown tree in my orchard with thick branches until I see my mum and dad.
As the flood of smoke crawls near, screaming commences louder than I have ever heard. Groups of people run out their back doors searching for help or to help. My mum and dad scramble out of our smoky house breathless. The taste of bitterness signals my brain to shout , still processing this moment. My beloved home burns ferociously.
People in The Old Testament described God as the One who protects, provides essentials, and guides all through the Journey of Life, but who is also the Creator of life and all that live.
I have chosen this title from John’s gospel because when I used to live in my old house I was the ‘shepherd’ of my friend and my little brother. Jesus identified himself as the Good Shepherd: “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.”
I created this poster for an article I read about a woman called Tiffany Singh who is a social- practice artist, whose goal is to make art with children in New Zealand to affect as many people that might lead to change in our country.
