Meeting the Auckland City Council

This week the principal of Baradene College, Mrs Sandy Pasley, accompanied two of our students Keera Ofren and Lauren White (pictured), to an Auckland Council WWI Political Steering Group meeting, chaired by historian Sandra Coney. These two students were invited to present their experience and knowledge gained from their WWI Shared History Project and in turn gained a first hand experience participating in local politics. This was a great chance for the Auckland City Councillors to find out about the Shared History project carried out by Baradene College students in Auckland, New Zealand, and students from Lycée Professionnel Jean Macé, Chauny, France. Our community can be very proud of the way in which they conducted themselves.
