Malala Yousafzai: Malala Yousafzai was born on the 12th of July 1997 in Pakistan, who was an active person in the process of being education, while her dad was a school owner. Malala Yousafzai was only 11, when she protested for girls to have rights for education. One day on the bus to get home, the Taliban attempted to murder Malala Yousafzai, when she was only 15 years old. Malala Yousafzai survived, but had a few operations in the United States. She recieved the Nobel Peace award for fighting for the rights of educations for females. What Malala Yousafzai has done that was special, was that she fought for female rights of education and had survived a head shot.

This week for day 4, activity 1 of week 3 for SLJ, we chose a Noble Prize winner and wrote about them in 5 to 10 sentences. This was based on Florence Nightingale and Marie Curie who were recognised by the world. Florence Nightingale was a trained to be nurse, who was sent to Turkey to look after wounded soldiers. Marie Curie who discovered chemical elements and she was the first to use an x-ray machine. For this activity, I chose Malala Yousafzai to write about.

  1. Kia ora Sakina! Olive here from the Summer Learning Journey! How are you doing?

    Thank you for your blog post! Malala is incredible. She is honesty such a brave and outstanding role-model for all young people. I think you've chosen such a courageous and deserving person to receive the Nobel Prize. Ka pai on all your effort! My choice would be my Opa (Grandfather) and Nan. I love them and admire them for how hard they've worked their whole lives. When my Dad and his siblings were younger, my grandparents used to open thier home to people from abused backgrounds and families who had no homes. They were honestly so selfless and are so deserving. Ka pai on all your effort!

    Remember the end of the Summer Learning Journey is next Friday 24th January! Keep up the blogging, commenting and enthusiasm!

    Ngā mihi,
    Olive

  4. Hi Sakina,
    I like the information that you have found on Malala Yousafzai. She sounds like an amazing person for standing up for her rights and her education. I can't believe that she was almost murdered at only 15 years of age. Keep up the good work.
