Garth Mcvicar

Yesterday afternoon Garth Mcvicar came ad talked to shepherd house. He talked shortly about his early years then he talked to us about the sensible sentencing trust. The sensible sentencing trust is a trust that makes people go to jail for as long as they deserve. Then he asked us to decide what would be a good length of time in prison for two people. After all of this had happened we asked Garth some sensible questions.

Tuesday 26th July 2016,


Kia ora Riley,


Hi my name is Josh I am 11 years old. I am a year 7 pupil at Havelock North Intermediate (HNI). I love Bmxing and I am part of the Havelock bmx club and enjoy spending a lot of spare time practising. I also love cars and anything that has an engine. Another thing I like to do is play xbox online with my friends.


At HNI this term we are learning about Change Makers like you. A Change Maker is a person that will make a change to someone's life or a charity. You have helped your friend by donating money to cure kids.


After reading this I was quite amazed that you put all of that effort into donating money to cure kids. It is an amazing thing that you have contributed to. If there were more people in the world like you the world would be an awesome place.


You sound like an awesome person. I would like to meet you in person. I hope that your friend gets better and the cancer remains in remission.. Good luck in the tough guy challenge.


Kind Regards
Josh Stephens

Room 12 HNI
