Japan has experienced its biggest anti-war protests in over 50 years as politicians set about changing the country’s stance on fighting overseas.
The Japanese parliament has passed a law that allows the country’s armed forces to fight overseas for the first time since the end of World War II, but only under certain conditions.
It has been given the name of “collective self defence” the law change allows actual combat under certain conditions.
Outside parliament, protestors came together in a last effort to stop the law being passed. Tens of thousands of protestors have been fighting the huge change in military policy for some time.
More than 200 hours were spent deliberating the law change, with 148 lawmakers voting in support and 90 against.
It has been given the name “collective self defence” which allows actual combat under three conditions:
  • when Japan is attacked, or when a close ally is attacked, and the result threatens Japan’s survival and is a clear danger to people
  • when there is no other appropriate way to stop the attack and ensure Japan’s survival and protect its people
  • use of force is restricted to a minimum

Rugby World Cup.

This term room 11 started on the Rugby World Cup for our inquiry. We got to pick our groups and in the group I was in there was Sophie, Tyla, Anavea, and Quros. We all had fun doing this topic because it helped us work as a team.

Today Myron Simpson came to our school to talk about his achievements in his life, and how his career started in the first place. He also told us that all his gear was made to be aerodynamic and the fastest he’s ever gone on a bike was 110 kph . The one thing that he told us that shocked me, was that he started riding a bike at the age of 3 and represented New Zealand at the age of 8. The things that he told us were really cool and I think that all of us learnt something and that was to never quit and keep going.
