Parent shocked after Porirua class asked to play racist game Mon, 3 May 2021, 2:50PM
A Porirua parent is lost for words after her 14-year-old was asked to participate in a colonial-style game which separated children into slaves, chiefs and aliens.
Earlier today she said a Year 10 Aotea College class were instructed to do the activity, which involved selling slaves, land and commoners - for 10 pearls .
Documents show the groups were also asked to attack aliens and rival countries, as well as inviting missionaries to talk to invaders and buy zap guns.
