20 Hour Famine Sleepover

 Two months ago, Pt England's two extension groups had the chance to participate the 20 hour famine. Every year the students come to have a sleep over. There are a few teachers there. All the teams performs an item. This year I decided to go and be in the yellow team. I had just moved houses so I got there a bit late.

Image result for 40 hour famineIt was a while before we actually started something. We all sat down in our teams. Our teacher told us to look around and make sure we get along with these people. That was because we were going to be making and performing an item with them. Chatter started to fill the room. A big “shhhhhhhhh”, came from the teacher. “Yellow team you can practise in the creative space”, she told us. (the creative space is one of the classrooms). Just to remind you I had a broken leg during this. I decided for myself that I would go without my crutches for today. It was a very bad idea. Five minutes into practising, my leg felt like I had just broken it again. I told the teacher and she took me home. Once I got  home my mum was telling me to eat. Even though I wasn’t at the sleepover I still wanted to do the famine. She forced me to eat it. So I did not do the 40 hour famine or the 20 hour famine. I only did 14 hours. I really hope to do it next year.

20 Hour Famine 2015!

Extension:

On Friday last week on the twenty second of may, I started the 20 hour famine with the extension group. The extension group of 2015, did the 20 hour famine. We all did the challenge with no food for 20 hours. We had a sleep over so we can do the 20 hour famine with some one and have fun instead of thinking of food.

I think it is a great thing that we did this because we can help the people in Bangladesh and collect money for them so they can live the same way we do instead of them living on the edge of the road. To help the people in the world who have nothing and sleep nowhere near where we sleep. If you can, try and help the people all around the world who don't have what we do.

Well I was doing the 20 hour famine, I was really thinking how much I am doing and how much other people are doing the 40 or 20 hour famine. We were doing this for the people who don't have much and need money. We are getting the money and giving it to them so they can eat healthy and live like us. When I was doing the 20 hour famine, I also was thinking about how I could help a whole family eat. I think it's not fair that they do not get the options that we have and not just for food. That's why I joined the 20 hour famine for this year. I have raised money for family or family's in Bangladesh and I felt like I need to do this next year to raise money for the people who are suffering.

In extension, most of us did the 20 hour famine. We had a sleepover to think about what we were doing. Hope you enjoyed.
