Students,
Welcome back from spring break, we got a slight reprieve from hard work today by getting to finish Rabbit Proof Fence. This 2002 film followed the journey of 3 half-caste girls as they tried to escape British captivity and make the 1200 mile journey home.
Be prepared to discuss the idea of the "stolen generation" and the implications it had for those half-caste children removed from their homes and forced into British settlements. Loss of culture, identity, and heritage are going to be important points that I will expect to see.
Hope every had a good first day back and I will see you tomorrow.
P.S. my suit was totally green!
