Writing: Back to the future & New Zealand Essay

WALT: write for a specific purpose and audience

This week for writing in Room 4. We had to find what poems might mean and each student had to write an essay about what will change in New Zealand over the years. Below is my essay. Hope you enjoy my writing.

Have you ever wondered what New Zealand might be like in 2048? Well today in my essay I will be writing all about what will stay the same and what will change in New Zealand in the years to come.

The Population in New Zealand is growing, but very slowly. According to the net migration, New Zealand’s population won’t likely reach five million in the next few year. In 1984 New Zealand’s  population was 3,260,300, but in 2001 it grew to 3,846,100. But some people believe by 2021 the population would likely reach 4,375,000. That’s a lot of people in one country, right??


Is the Climate change impact in New Zealand irreversible? Climate Change may have already made a huge impact on New Zealand’s natural systems and the effects are likely to become worser. Soils in some areas have become drier and the temperature of the ocean has risen. Do you know Fox glacier in the South Island? Well from 2005 to 2011 it looked like a real glacier but ever since then the glaciers started shrinking which is a sign of Global warming.


So what do you think will change and what will stay the same in the years to come for New Zealand? I hope you learned something new from my writing about what New Zealand will be like in the future.

How to be an Upstander

Today I am going to write about how to be an Upstander. What is an Upstander, you ask? An Upstander is about a person moving from being silent to taking action. Bystanders contribute to the problem. Upstanders stops the problem. So which one are you a Upstander or a Bystander?

Number one, Have courage to be an Upstander. It takes a lot of courage to be an Upstander. Upstanders are kids who prevent and stop the bullying they see, or comes to the aid of another kid who is being bullied by showing them kindness. Moving from being an Bystander to a Upstander doesn't just happen overnight, it takes time and it takes commit. It can start by becoming more aware of the bullying behaviour and how it affects the victim’s life. Upstanders are able to see the pain the victim is feeling and takes action.

What’s the difference between a Bystander and a Upstander? A bystander is someone that does not speak up or act to prevent problems from happening but contributes to it. But an Upstander takes action when they see something that is not right and takes charge by standing up to the problem.

How does being an upstander make a difference? When Upstanders speak out and their opinions are heard they will make a difference in their community’s and in the world. We all should be just like Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela who made a change in the world by standing up and making their voices heard and not being scared to stand up for what they believe in.

So will you be a Upstander or a Bystander? I hoped you learned something from my writing on how to be an Upstander and making your voice and opinion heard.
