Since January when Miss Neira told us about the activity of National Peace Assembly y wanted to work with Daniel Cortes in Banco de la Republica but he could only select one of all the people who wanted to work in that delegation. I begged a lot and finally I was a "banker". We started working on that preparingall things in our folders. By the time Miss Gomescasseres told us that she had invited an eight-grader to help us correcting some problems her name was Luisa Parra she was nice and laid-back. Then we knew when the National Peace Assembly was. Finally we had to work in the assembly and propuse the solutions to some problems.

My Challenging Experience In NPA




One day in school, our Social Science teacher told us that we were going to participate in a model named NPA. That model was similar to the United Nations Model; but the ones that participated were 5th, 6th and 7th graders. We selected our delegation and our committee. My delegation was the Colombian Liberal Party, and my committee was Narcotrafic. One day in English class Miss GomezCasseres invited a president named Luisa Parra to participate in some expositions that we were making about our delegations. Days after we had the mock, but I didn't stay because I had to participate in a soccer match in other school. The 27th of March of 2009 was the model of NPA. That day in the morning, we had to go to the colisseum because there the presidents were going to give us some important instructions and elements to be able to be part of. That day the students of 10th grade had another activity about economy. When presidents gave us the implements to participate, each delegate went to his committee in a specific classroom. When we arrived in the classroom, we oppened the agenda and then we read the position papers. After all people read their papers we went to recess. In recess they told me that two girls of my classroom lost their vote, so they failed the Social and Civics subjects. After recess we went back to the classroom and we started to make a debate about the illicit crops. Then we made a debate. The problem of that debate was that some citizens of United States and Europe killed some farmers of Colombia and from Brazil to steal them some drugs. At the beginning I was scared of talking; but then I got confident and I started to talk. Once I almost stole the vote of the ELN but their vote was so important so they didn't lose it. Then we made some papers of reslutions by groups. I joined with ANDI and FEDEGAN. Our paper didn't pass because some delegations were so mad with ANDI, FEDEGAN and me. Then all the debates finished and we had to go to the cafeteria for the close up of the event. There they gave prizes for the best delegations, and best position papers and others. But I didn't stay in that ceremony because at that time I had a very important soccer match to pass to the second round with the school soccer team, so I had to talk to some presidents, with the sponsor Giovanni and with the high committee named Sebastian Gallo so they let me go to the match. As a conclusion, I think that that was a great experience because I learnt to talk better in public and I liked to make lots of debates.
