End of Year 9

Today is the last day of year 9. It was pretty fun I guess. I learnt a lot in social studies. Such as how the old Maoris lived and European Colonisation. I learnt the most in social studies. In math i pretty much revised everything I've already done. I really liked my english teacher Mr Vigil

Jumpstart english

In English we had to do a slide including 3 things that bring us joy

Human Rights Heroes

When thinking of Human Rights heroes the first person that comes to my mind is Martin Luther King jr. He was a black rights activist from the 1960's and he did a lot to give black people the rights that they have today. His I Have a dream speech inspired change within the black community and forced america to change their racist ways

Globalisation

We have been looking at globalisation in Social Studies this term. With some research I found out that New Zealand exports around 36 billion USD a year. I will be focusing on researching Milk Powder since that is NZ's Top export.

Reflection: This project challenged me because i had to find the statistics and exact numbers to go with the exact countries. I got my information from; NZ Dairy Industry Stats NZ

My Story

    Ko tuhipa toku maunga 

Ko tereawatea toku awa
Ko otiria te marae
Ko ngatokimatawhaorua te waka
Ko ngati teara te hapu
Ko ngati hine te iwi
    Ngapuhi nui tonu
    Ko kaiwae te roto

Waitangi pt.2

 We went to Waitangi again and we started working on our stories on the laptops. after we had lunch we watched a kapahaka performance by an adult kapahaka group named ngapitopito

Waitangi

At Waitangi treaty grounds we learnt about the story and relationships of the Maori and Europeans
and the treaty. They strengthened their bonds through trading but after the treaty happened they went to war. while we were inside we learnt about coding stop motion and special effects. we had a jam on a vr headset and drew things with the controller.

Longitude and latitude

In social studies we have been learning about longitude and latitude. Longitude and latitude are used to measure distance and identify specific locations around the world. They are measured in degrees and minutes

Pink Shirt Day

                                             

Pink shirt day is about wearing pink to support anti bullying. It started in Canada when students decided to wear pink to stop bullying toward the LGBT community. On Friday students wore pink and held activities in the School quad. Recently the Christchurch shooting claimed over 50 lives due to racism. This is the biggest act of bullying in New Zealand. On Friday the 17th whole school participated in activities like throwing darts at pink balloons and there was music playing, students who participated got hot dogs. In class we made posters about anti bullying.
