On Monday the Seniors went to the Immigration Museum in the city. We learnt about people who migrated to Australia because of disasters the happened to them. We watched a video about a man who boards a tram and acts strange around this black guy. We went in a replica of what it’s like on boats that travel to Australia and boats these days like big metal ocean liners. We saw wrappers of biscuits and stuff but I didn’t get why they were so racist.
We got to take a walk in the city and take photos of the Yarra River and how it looked like in the past. It was quite strange to see so many homeless people hanging out on the footpath and near the main road. I learnt that Australia is one of the worst countries to turn migrants back to their own country. There was a sign that said where white and black people go to get water. There was even a T-shirt that showed a message that told people Australia is too full to have others in the country.
