If I were a Prime Minister for a day

If I were a Prime Minister for a day I would make the prices for everything in New Zealand $0.00 so then people wouldn't worry about buying food for their families, getting a new car, buying a house or like paying off their housing bills. But that's only going to be for a day. And I hope that will make some people like the homeless enjoy a day for once in their life time. So that means they can go to malls get some free clothes and probably get heaps of food for them selves.

Government

The government in New Zealand sorts out important stuff like our taxes, funds, citizenship's for people and housing problems for people that live here in New Zealand and other important stuff like that. I know that when it comes to elections, people from 18 and over have to vote or else they will get a fine. A fine to pay because they didn't vote in the elections.

I don't really know that much about the New Zealand Government but I can say that they are doing a good job. I know that there are 6 or 7 different parties in the government. There is the Labour party, Green party, Maori party, ACT party, New Zealand first party and I forgot the last one or two but that's all I know about the New Zealand Government. Thanks for reading this blog post I hope you learned something from this. And I hope you enjoy the rest of your day and goodbye.

Push & Pull Factors

In migration, push factors is when you forcefully push people away to a different place or country. And Pull factors is when you have to leave where you are currently staying to a new place or country. 

My grandpa's sister & husband was in a situation like this. They were pulled into New Zealand which is called pull factors. They were pulled to New Zealand so they can live a happier better life then living in Tonga. 

But then my grandpa's sister left New Zealand because her mother just recently died in probably her late 80's or something. So when she left she also left behind her husband called Fine. This is a true story about my family members so I can't tell you everything that happened but, later on a few weeks later Fine flew back to Tonga because of some important issues that happened and because he wasn't allowed to live with me after what happened to me.

So at the beginning of the story they were pulled to New Zealand for a better happier future but, then at the end of the story one person was pulled back to Tonga and the other person was pushed back to Tonga.

My Social Studies Exams Reflection

Last week starting from Wednesday all the way through to Friday the whole school of Tamaki College began our middle of the year school tests. The tests were about what we have been learning about and all kinds of things. On Friday we did our Social studies exam. I thought that I went okay with our Social studies exam.

I think that this went okay because during the Social studies period I was doing my work, listening to my teacher and actually working my butt off for everything. Of course I didn't get everything 100% like how we were supposed to write what we learned back in Term 1 but I know I tried my best and that's all that I could do.

For my exams that coming up next I will have to work hard and keep trying and finish my tasks so I can improve on my tests.

Positive Digital Footprint

It is important to have a positive digital footprint because when you are doing something negative online you leave footprints on the internet and you don't want anybody to see what you were doing so you should always think about everything twice.  Also if you think that when you delete your history on your computer or phone or something you might think it's deleted forever and nobody can see what you have deleted but, really somebody (hacker or somebody good with computers) can just be stalking on you at that very moment. So remember everything you do online you will always leave a digital footprint. I just want to stay make sure you have a positive digital footprint online. Thank you for listening and hope you have learned something. Good bye.

About Tokelau

This week in Social Studies class we have been watching a documentary video about Tokelau. Tokelau has been changing over the past few years like their tradition/culture has changed, how Tokelau has gone global now, food is changing, education is also changing, they are living in a good position at the moment, they are citizens of New Zealand, and that the council there are finally listening to woman's side of story and what their perspectives are to things and what they have to say. I would like to tell you why Tokelau is changing but I guess I wasn't listening very carefully to the video. And that's all what I've got for today.

Inquiry Reflection

Our group didn't work as a team because some of us were on other sites and not focusing on our inquiry work.  The rest were working really good and managing themselves to what they had to do.

The things that we did well together as a group was just communicating on what or who should do that and stuff.  Next I think that we can work on as working and participating as a team not one or two people mucking around and not doing what their supposed to be doing.

Our next job to do as a group is to improve on our thinking and to work together as a team.  Also the next thing we're doing is to write a poem or a song lyric or something that is about our inquiry topic which is Healthy Foods and that's about all.
