New Zealand is one of the most ethnically diverse nations on earth. It is also one of the most peaceful. The change in our society has happened very fast, in less than a generation. Our newest Kiwis come here, as we all did once, as migrants or refugees.
Our biggest challenge is how we choose to live our lives and what kind of country we let New Zealand become. This Race Relations Day the Human Rights Commission is asking all Kiwis to welcome and get to know the people in your community. What you do makes all the difference.

Today we came together as a whole school in a heart formation. We were hoping to capture an image of how culturally diverse we are at Sunnynook Primary School.

Things To Do In Class
Create a class poster as a visual representation of its diversity. Take a piece of paper and partner up with someone. Draw your partner. Montage all the class drawings together. Take a photograph to share on the blog.
Imagine you are writing a profile to introduce yourself on your class Wiki, join Facebook or a social network site.
Write your profile using only three words to describe who you are. Try not to just think of physical descriptions or personality but also words relating to other factors such as your beliefs, the different communities you belong to and these origins. Share them on the blog.
