Where I Am From
Where I Am From from SchoolTV on Vimeo.
Recently in my Social Studies class, we've been focusing on migrants and immigration regarding New Zealand. Our task was to create a project showing where you/ your ancestors have come from, why they've come etc. regarding immigration in any medium.
I chose to create a movie based on my grandparents, (you know seeing as I'm all techy and stuff...)
I particularly enjoyed creating this movie as it actually gave me a better understanding of why/how my grandparents got to Auckland/NZ. It has certainly given me an even higher of the respect I already have for my grandparents, simply hearing about all the issues that happened along the way.
Huge credit to my grandparents for making the decision to move for their children, let alone agreeing to be interviewed for this.
Thank you, I literally wouldn't be here without you.❤
