Archibald Baxter didn't live a normal life. Archibald was the second of eight children that starved in his childhood. Archibald also left school at the age of 12 and then he had to work on the farm and do stuff like shoot rabbits and keep the rabbits away from their potatoes, kumara, silver beet, radishes and greens. When Archibald was thirty-five he got told to come to military services to go to the war. He refused and everyone called him a coward because they heard about it. He still refused and had to get punished. He got sent to France to get tied to a pole and stay outside for ages.
I am a Year 6 student at Pt England School in Auckland, NZ. My teachers are Miss Scanlan, Mr Goodwin, and Miss Parrant.
