 Upstanders & Bystanders.

We have been studying the subject of bullying. It involves up standers, bystanders and victims. Bystanders just look on and watch while the victim is bullied.  An upstander has at least 5 good qualities. They assist the victim, they don't throw any punches but they report the incident to authorities who can help.

When? 1954

Why? In the 1950s Hamilton set out to try to build a boat that could navigate the shallow fast flowing rivers where he lived. The rivers were too shallow for propeller driven boats to navigate as the propeller would hit the river bottom. He's from christchurch.
