Why do people make the choice to move to different countries?

My mum came here for her job as a pastry chef.
My Dad came here because his parents died and his siblings went to live in Australia.
To have a better life.

Is this a trend in NZ society? What does the media tell us?
Immigrants keep coming to New Zealand to have a better life. Every year 60,000 come to New Zealand.

Here is a video for you. This video made me feel like everyone has a right to be different.

Motat recount

This recount has been edited by me alone and not checked by my teacher. I am learning to work independently.

On Tuesday all of the senior classes went to the Motat we were all excited.  We went to the Motat because we were learning about toys and we were going to make t make one. First we got into the bus with our groups and parent then when we got there we listened to a instructor who was going to tell us about the Motat. Then we went to a big igloo kind of building and had morning tea.

Our first activity was in a room where we looked at toys and tried some of them out. Then we looked at the olden day toys and compared them to the toys now. We also looked at an optical illution and it was called the Jacob's ladder. A optical illution is when you see something that is not what you think.

The next activity was exploring through the Motat. We looked at some games and a 3D printer. There was also a wall of names. Then we looked at the village and school from the olden days even some of the houses, a church, and a jail.

Then we had lunch and went to our our next activity. The activity was a machine area that made noises and used your strength. Then we went to an olden day area where there were olden day electronics and games like phones and tv’s.

Then we went on a tram around the Motat to the air planes place then the driver told us facts about him and the tram. Then we turned back and went back to the igloo.

Our final activity Was Leonardo Da Vinci. The first thing I saw was the auto hammer. The Auto hammer was a hammer that had a tuner on it and would be useful for welders. He also made a boat kind of cannon that floated on water and would spin around when the captain turned a lever as well as the cannon he made the first ever aeroplane and the catapult, snorkelling kind of thing and he was also Mona Lisa's husband and etc.

Finally home time we all got into our groups again and went back to school we all had an awesome time and thank you to the teachers and parents.

Chromebook parts

In cyber smart today we learnt the different parts of our Chromebooks and where they came from. I searched 7 different parts from the Chromebook. We used my maps.
Blog you later.

Hacked

In cyber smart we made a scenario of what could happen online and we wrote questions about it. Then we answered them and we also  wrote what we would do. Here they are.
If this happened to me, I would tell my parents and get them to report it to Facebook. I wouldn't say anything back because I would make it worse.
