Current Events Term 1
In Current Events I covered these topics:
  • The design of the Halswell Skate Park and I made a submission to the council.
  • Donald Trump’s Refugee Plan
  • Christchurch Earth Memorial
  • The new Ngā Puna Wai Sports Facility
  • The Red Zone and Avon River Regeneration Plan with a submission to the council.
My favourite topic was the nga puna wai sports facility because it is near here and I would be able to use it so it felt like I was helping the community

The Reading National Standards I have achieved are.
  • Year 9/10

I showed excellence by doing the actions as best as copying matua to learn the new actions.
