On your blog write a description of what New Zealand will be like at that time (80 – 90 years from now). What kind of houses will people live in? What will they eat? Where will they work?

In 80 - 90 years I picture people living in houses that are safer and can float, and I think they'll be eating healthier food and that there will be no takeaways which sounds very sad. I think they'll work in the sky like just above the clouds and have these little carts that take them to work. And instead of phones thell have these things were you use your fingers to turn it on like these. But yet again It could be perfect and all but the waters could be polluted there could be no kiwis left not much native animals and that is a big worry. So I am hopping when I am gone that New Zealand keeps clean and safe.

You have to be okay with getting up early, you have to do it every single day and be really committed to your job. I think most interesting is how they used horses and this sort machine to brake into the land.

The Movie Moana is about the girl who always wanted to be on the water and how she was chosen to restore the heart of Te fiti. So We all know Maui right he was the demigod who slowed the sun and bought all these wonderful items to our world like fire,coconuts the north island ETC. But Maui is not all good he thought taking the heart of Tawhiti would give humans the best life. But see when he took it darkness took over the water and stole the life from every island that was in its way. The other character is Moana, she is the child of Chief Tui and Sina. Moana always had the desire to go beyond the reef and adventure,  but her father would not allow her because when he went past the reef everything went extremely wrong.When she was younger she went for a walk to the beach and it was like the ocean had a mind of it own, so the ocean made way for her so that she could pick up the seashells. That day her grandma was there and believed the ocean chose her to put the heart of Tawhiti back. So Moana's Grandma waited for her to get older so that she could tell her. Eventually Moana became older and  her Grandma told her about how the ocean chose her to restore the heart, she didn't believe it until the ocean showed her it was true. You know how I told you about the ocean having its own mind yeah she thought it was a dream, the ocean gave her the heart of tawhiti so that she could restore it. When her grandma was taking her last breaths she told moana to go find Maui and force him to travel with her and restore the heart. So she did (This is after she met Maui on the his island) Moana travelled with Maui and went to defeat Te ka but Moana saw that Teka was Te fiti just without the heart. So she went face to face with Te Ka and restored the heart. Then everything went well and Maui got his new hook (Maui broke his hook while fighting with Te ka) from Te fiti but she wasn't very happy with what he did.

Speaking of home, where do you live? On your blog, please post a picture of your hometown and provide a list of three things that tourists, like us, could do if we came to visit. What do you like most about your hometown? (Remember the guidelines for being Cybersmart, and never post your address online).

These two photos are from where I live which is in Glen Innes. What I love most about my home town is the people although they may look mean all you have to do is say hello! and ask how there day is going and I guarantee they will greet you and make you feel welcomed, actually some people arent related but you will mistake them as family because how close they to each other. The first photo is the Glen Innes Center which I think tourist would love to look at and buy some things that they have never tasted like lollies,food etc. The second photo is Te Oro, Te Oro is a place where kids and adults who love to Sing,dance,paint,and make beats can go after school or during the holidays and enjoy their time. Which I think will be a great place for tourist to visit while their here in Glen Innes. Last but not least is the Wai o Taiki Bay, Wai o Taiki Bay is a small Auckland suburb bordering Glen Innes and I think tourist will love it because its really pretty they could go for a walk and take photos and share them with their friends

Think about your school. What is one thing that you would like change. Would you like to learn about different things? Maybe you think school should only be open 3 days a week?

On your blog, write a letter to your principal to try and convince him/her to make the change. Ensure that your letter is polite and respectful.

Dear Mr Hendricks

This is a letter to tell you what I would like to change and I promise it is a good thing. See I really think that there should be self defense classes. Why? well, on the news there have been attempted abductions and I really think self defense classes will come in handy if one of the students are in trouble. I know it may cost money to get self defense teachers to come to our school which is why I would be happy to help pay if you consider doing this. Im also wanting this because the parents, it would obviously be a huge loss if they ever lost their child. If you think about students would learn more and enjoy their time. I am sure that some of the teachers and students will agree with me. When you have made your mind up please tell me, whatever decision you make I will respect it.
