 * __Term 3 The Commonwealth__**
 * The Commonwealth is a voluntary association of interconnected countries, each having an equal voice and its 1.7 billion (2006) people account for 30% of the global population of the world. The Commonwealth has in it 54 independent sovereign states, with most of them having been former British colonies. The bond for this family of countries is their acceptance of each other's diversity of cultures, ethnicities, indigenous languages, governments, economy and size of populations. They believe in helping each other to become better and more prosperous societies by showing respect and caring for others and their origins, identity and location. There are four broad categories that make up the Commonwealth and they are: Commonwealth Foundation; Commonwealth Games; Commonwealth of Learning and Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Each one of them has the goal of making life better in some way for the large family of the Commonwealth of which New Zealand/ Aotearoa is one.
 * Task: In a group of 4 produce a travel guide booklet for a tourist travelling from New Zealand who wants to visit a minimum of 4 Commonwealth countries in four different parts of the world. ** ||
