TPPA

TRANS
PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
 
The New Zealand government is negotiating an agreement that will involve the 11 Asian and pacific-rim countries including the United States. If this agreement goes ahead then it will become a huge issue to the people of New Zealand but mostly have an impact on the children. Since the agreement is being negotiated in private nobody really knows if the tppa is a safe decision or a threat to our environment.

The year eights graduation dinner was amazing.  Everyone was beautifully dressed.The food was sensational and everyone was surely to clean off their plates. Everyone was filled with laughter and that made the year eight students have a night to remember even with a few other celebrations such as Whaea Christin's birthday.The desserts were rich and the teachers and year eight students demolished there desserts in secounds,also the inspiring speeches from teachers were mindblowing followed with a few gifts.That was an outstanding night to remember and the year eights will never forget that precious night and surely we made alot of memories of this special occasion.

Pygmy Seahorse

The Pygmy Seahorse  is as small as a paper clip. The babies grow tubercles and they can change colour so that they camouflage.

Scientists went to the Philippines to get  Pygmy Seahorses to take them back to San Francisco because they want to find out if Pygmy Seahorses change colour.

When the baby   Pygmy Seahorse came out of the males pouch they changed colour. They  camouflage with the coral.

Grandparents story

Grandparents Story

My Grandparents are natural born hardworkers and are both fluent in Te Reo Maori. My granddad is a man of many trades, but the one he shines through the most is being a builder. He's also a great cook in the kitchen. As for my nan, she's a retired teacher and taught me everything I know. She's a walking encyclopedia, she can whakapapa right back to our ancestor Hine-a-maru and knows alot about our maori history. Nan will fight for what is right and could probably teach everyone here a thing or two!

I strongly believe my grandparents are the best because both my grandparents are really supportive and help me any way they can.They come to every netball game to support and cheer on my team on. I love them for that!

My grandparents have taught me to never give up when things get rough and to always try my best at achieving my goals.They also try to teach me maori but I sometimes don`t know what they're saying. They don`t give up on me and I love that about them. My nan always tells me storys about the olden days. I love listening to her stories! 

I will always love my grandparents for as long as I live. I will never forget them. My granparents are the best!.
