Sir Peter Blake

 This week is Leadership Week. In our class we are learning all about Sir Peter Blake. We completed short assignments to do with his life and tragic death. Mrs Irwin created a display on our wall dedicated to Sir Peter Blake. He was a hero not only for New Zealand but for the whole world. He had a very successful yachting career and was also a loving family man. After his America's Cup win, he turned his attention to the environment after seeing what was happening to the seas during his around the world trips. He created Blakexpeditions. It was on his voyage up the Amazon that he was tragically shot by pirates.
