Kate sheppard speech


Hiiii guys its Palavi and hey hey I am back I'm in high School now and I still live in Hastings, today I will be sharing a speech with you guys that we are actually doing right now in English its about Katherine Wilson Malcolm Sheppard.

We can all be heroes.

My definition of a hero is someone who is caring and thinks of others before thinking of themselves. Someone who is not selfish and someone who actually represents the word "HERO". A hero is someone who is admired for their courage. A hero is somebody who inspires and guides people to take the right path. Someone who is nice and does what needs to be done at the right time. Being a woman herself made it difficult, men thought women should just stay at home and do duties, but Kate thought differently she wanted to be able to make political decisions and the right to vote. the first reason why Katherine Wilson Malcolm Sheppard is my hero because she asked the government for the right for women to vote. She was an active member in her church and was very religious. Later in her life she became a big leader in the fight for women's rights. Kate was very strong. She was the prominent member of the women's suffrage movement in New Zealand and the country's most famous suffragette.Secondly in 1885 Kate Sheppard founded the women's christian campaign. Several tries failed until New Zealand parliament finally agreed to give women the right to vote in 1893. Two years after WCTU's creation Kate was named the leader of its suffrage. She changed many women's life. Final reason why she is my hero because she is the main person behind in making New Zealand the first country in the world to vote. She believed woman should be able to make their own income and not smooch off their husband's for money.





She left a great legacy behind.

My Dad.


My dad is someone special to me, he is the most loving and caring dad. My dad works at Unison. He is an electrician, not everybody gets an opportunity to be an electrician because you have to do many courses at EIT. He finds it really exciting  working at unison. My dad says,” working in unison is fabulous, the most fun thing to do in unison is doing the power line works”. My Dad used to work in fiji, there he was an electrician he worked for FEA Fiji electricity authority. He found it fun working over there  too.


Dad gives me courage in sports. Once I did not know how to play soccer but dad gave me courage and told me ”Palavi keep trying you’ll surely do it”. His favorite sport is soccer. Once I asked dad can we have pizza, fizzy for lunch he said,  “yes”. He is a fabulous cook. He makes yummiest food, roast chicken , boiled potato and cassava for lunch. Sometimes he makes cabbage, lamb and taro for dinner. He also takes my brother, my mum and I to Auckland.  Whenever we go to Auckland he takes us to Rainbows End and Chipmunks bouncy castle. We stay at dad’s brother's house.When we return back he buys us MacDonald.


That's the reason I like my dad.

You need to ensure that the buoyancy tank bung is screwed in place so that it won’t sink.

All people on the water have to wear a properly fitted life jacket.

Just remember to stay seated when moving .

There are no brakes on a yacht but if you need to slow down or even stop simply steer the front (bow) of the boat so it is pointing into the wind then release the mainsheet rope .

With all the traffic around it is really important that you always watch where you are steering so you and others can be safe.

If you hear one whistle stop and listen while 2  whistle blasts means come back to shore immediately . If you are in trouble on the water call HELP and wave your hands above your head
