Students about Milford School

Min Jae, 8

I have been at Milford School since February 2010. I go to Room 8 and my teacher's name is Miss Clark. I have many friends in my class. I love Milford School because my teacher and my esol teacher help me a lot to learn English better. I am going back to Korea in a few days time. I will miss my friends and my teacher. I would like to come back to Milford school again.

Yun Seo, 11

I am an international student in Milford School. I like my teacher Ms
Keen and my ESOL teacher, Mrs S. When I go to Takapuna Intermeadiate School, I will miss my friends and the other teachers who helped me a lot. But I will miss Esol the most, because I learned many many things and improved my English skills at ESOL. Also, when I go back to Korea, I am going to miss New Zealand and I will never forget it!

International Refugee week

This week is International refugee week. Our ESOL group made this poster for the refugees. We were learning about the refugees and about what it feels to be a refugee. Our friend Yun-seo Read 2 books about refugees and the one book is about a refugee from North Korea to South korea. We all enjoyed to listen the story. Our freind Andrei said " It's sad to leave their own countries but It's better than dying." We hope that our poster is a way of expressing support to all the refugees around the world. We also hope that the number of refugees decreases in the years to come.
