The day we were student leaders we had a very busy day. In the morning we had Barry Heard come in, he was a war veteran and a book writer. He spoke about is experiences in the war and how it changed him, he also talked about his 3 books and why he wrote them. He was very interesting to listen to and we all really appreciated him coming in a talking to us about everything.

For lunch we did something a bit different, because of all the poverty in all the less fortunate countries we had to get into little families, eat on the ground and eat the amount people from those countries ate which was only about 15 grains of each, there was also 4 people that got to get a 3 course meal and got waited on which were the rich people. This really taught us about how lucky we are and how things should change so there aren’t people that are starving or have nowhere to live, or just struggling. Over all the day was really fun and we got a lot out of the day.
