Fatima, a Manurewa student, recently posted an issue on the VX. She said:
"On Christmas some families can't afford presents so kids don't get presents and that's really sad cause everyone on Christmas day should get a gift , look i know you guys may say oh presents are not about christmas but for kids its sad they should get presents because if we didn't get presents imagine instead of presents they will have a bad childhood e.g smoking, drinking, drugs, pregnancy at young ages not only teens, unprotected sex , and evan start stealing , that's why we should at least give presents away for the families that can't afford presents that way on christams we are all together in this."
Her proposal was: "It is proposed that we should all put in money or some things you don't want so that we can renew them for families who can't afford presents."
The VX and the school want to support Fatima. Please answer this quick survey so we can all work out what to do for the best.
