Writing; Cure Kids - Huriata

Room 10 participated in a kelly sport event to support ‘Cure Kids’.


Cure Kids charity is an institute supported by Rotary since 1971, and is known as a ‘Health Research Foundation’ who help and provide those in need; such as those with particular illnesses. This means they help by researching (doing projects) and providing information, they help the kids find cures and are able to fund them, and make sure that kids can be healthy and stay healthy.
An example of this is ‘Auckland Uni,' a research team who have come to a school (T.P.S) to collaborate in order to achieve a study/ project based on our urine - to see the effects of sodium inside a child's body, and the harm that it could inflict. This is done by getting volunteers to help with the research - in which they follow a task to 1; keep a journal and write which foods they have. And 2; pee in a large container. And to keep track of how much water they take. The effect of this could help the foundation in succeeding to find what children should be doing, to help benefit in the children's health.


Today I participated by doing the red nose day and giving a foundation of a dollar. That means it will go to the ‘Cure Kids’ in hopes of supporting kids and funding children’s health research. An example of a game I played was called ‘Capture the flag’ which involves kids retrieving cones to their side, with a defender and attackers.

By supporting Cure Kids I hope that my foundation was able to help someone.
