Current Events

Today 27.02.18 I read an article on Kiwi Kids News: NZ school system in for a major change.
In this article, it’s explains the major changes that are going to occur in the NZ school system. They’re (government) looking at skills that are needed in the 21st century, such as Technology. It’s stated in this article ‘The entire education system, from pre-school to adult education, is to be completely overhauled’. Some of the main components of they’re plan they’re looking at are Reviews of NCEA, focusing on raising achievement for Maori and Pasifika, and Decisions on Communities of Online Learning. Those are just a few components that stood out to me out of many. My opinion on this article is that students should be really grateful for having an education because a lot of people try to make it possible for kids to have a bright future and a good education. I also look forward to seeing what education would look like in the future.

Sponge Roll

This morning in Food Tech I made a Sponge Roll, with my partner. It was a very easy recipe and it tasted nice. We topped it with some chocolate syrup and ready whipped cream.

Theories of where Polynesians came from.

Today the two theories I will be comparing are the ‘Hawaiki’, and ‘South America’ theories. Some people believe that Polynesians were migrated from South America. A theorist named Thor H. once noticed the wind and ocean currents might’ve pushed travelers to the Pacific, instead of their destination. Some people believe this evidence is true. Although some do not. Some people believe that Polynesia was migrated from ‘Tahiti’. The reason for this is the similarities of Myths, Stories, Names, etc. I think that both theories have a lot of interesting and different evidence. This makes me want to research more about Theories on where we Polynesians came from. I support the theory of South America. Because of its evidence. I think the evidence of this theory is true. A particular evidence I believe is how sweet potato (kumara) came from South America. Also how wind and ocean currents pushed travelers to the Pacific.
