Climate Change

What causes climate change and how can we stop it?

Climate change is caused by greenhouse gases, soot, land use changes and aerosols.
Climate change is heating up the Earth and causing ice caps to melt, which will drown coastal cities.
The Antarctic & Arctic creatures will all lose their habitats, deeming them HIGHLY endangered.
Try using alternatives to petrol or diesel cars, such as e-cars or walking & biking.
Try using energy from alternative sources like solar, hydro and wind power like Tokelau.
Places like Tokelau are going the extra mile to save the environment!
If the whole world was like Tokelau, we would have a much smaller problem.
Jacinda Ardern claims the NZ will have no petrol or diesel cars on the road by 2030.
If this is true, the world would be a much better place.
Who knows? Maybe by 2050 the whole world will be petrol and diesel free!` x3

The Haka.

Does the haka give the all blacks an unfair advantage?
That was the question asked by the Irish journalist Ewan MacKenna, after a convincing loss to the all blacks. Around 20% of people believed that the All Blacks got an unfair advantage, while everyone else thought it was absolutely fine. Personally, I believe that the haka is fine, and makes them play better, but 20% of the voters disagree.

Fraction DLO

Today our class was working on a fraction sheet. We all had to choose a fraction to work on, and put some facts on the fraction. I chose to do the fraction 5/6. I did a bit of searching to get to my final product. Here it is and I hope you enjoy.

My Superpower

This week, we had a special teacher to come and talk to us. We all had to come up with our "superpower".  This superpower was something we think that we excelled at. I put my superpower as soccer, or football. We had to make a google drawing with our superpower, and the skills involved with the hobby. I spent around an hour on mine, always changing design. I put in eight things that are involved in football. Here it is.

Shake out!

This week around New Zealand, we had a shake out. It is a drill for an earthquake followed by a tsunami. We are almost in the safe zone, we just need to cross a road and head up a hill. We had plenty of time, we just had to be weary of not standing on other peoples property while heading up the hill.

Greymain cup.

On the first day of the term, we did the Greymain cup. We all split up into team that play in the rugby world cup, and competed in different games. There was a game of Rippa rugby, Duck duck goose, A netball rugby competition game and many more. I was the captain of South Africa, and our team did well, we didn't place but we all enjoyed it.

Area 51 raid Aftermath

On Saturday, the Area 51 raid became a thing. Two million people signed up to come and raid the military base, and an estimated 75 people showed up.
This was disappointing for everyone trying to watch it. No-one actually tried to get in except an old lay, who just walked on in. The rest just protested outside

Although no-one actually raided, there is a new mini celebrity.
Someone Naruto ran past a news reporter, while the camera was on. I will have links to the lady entering and the man running.
