Whats it means to be successful

Being successful means the achievement of desired visions and planned goals. Furthermore, success can be a certain social status that describes a prosperous person that could also have gained fame for its favourable outcome. 
EG:
In this past few months on 2017,i had an Excellence on my career pathway.The reason why get an Excellence is because i try my best to complete my works even though that i am not that good at English but i succeed the works that my teacher has gave to me.The reason that i was successful is because i complete my all my works,i listen to the teacher and i have always on task.This Excellence meant a lot to me because it can helped me a lot with my future dreams or my goal for the future.

"REASON WHY IT IS IMPORTANT"

To me,the reason why it is important to read and write during the holiday because it can helps the student to understand how stories work,it can develop the mind of the students,it can build new skills to them,its help them know how to write the correct words,learning new words,know how the the sentence must be in order to correct.

I think that students will love to write about their lives,their secret,wishes,lyrics,goal,letter,family and themselves because they found it funny.They also love to write because they think it might be a story for their lives.

"MY FRIENDS"

This are my friends.I miss them so much.I wish that me and all of my friends will be together and we will travel around the world and have fun.My friends means everything to me,because they support me,stand for me,fight for me and they also love me.I love them so much.

"MY BUCKET LIST"

• Help my neighbour around the world.
• Be the best actress ever.
• Be the best singer.
• Become a model.
• Build a big house for my family.
• Help my family who lived on the island.
• Give better lives for my family and make them happy and proud of me.
• Become a doctor
• Become a best dancer.
• Travel around the world with my friend(Korea,America,Philippines,Japan,Australia,etc…….
• Meet BTS,Taylor Swift,Cardi B,Bretmanrock,Johnson Dwayne and Ellen Degeneres one day.

The reason why i put help my neighbour around the world at the top because i have been dreaming of doing this things and i also watch on YouTube about the homeless people and so i kind of like wanting to do it.I also found it hard to watch my own people suffering because of hunger it makes me feel hurt,so i decided to make this things happen i wanna give my neighbour a better place i wanna help.

"MY WHANAU/FAMILY"

I think that Tamaki Whanau/Family means to the people who lived in Tamaki(student,teacher,staff) and i think  the reason why students and staff at our school described as a family because school(Tamaki College) is a another home for students and teachers and stuff to learn more about ourselves and because the teachers and stuff is like a parents to us student ,and student is like brothers and sisters.I also think that because school( Tamaki College)is like a place where we learn more about our ancestry and of-course we could also know our bloodline as well so that's why.

"MY ELECTION FINAL RESULT."

This the final result that i have found out.I just found out that the National party has the most vote and the Labour is the second.I have found out that the vote is not about how many they have they will have to wait for other party to vote for them too.I want the labour to won the election because my family support and they love Labour than National.

"Summary paragraph about party policies."

In social studies i studied political party policies of education,housing and health.the education policy that i best supported was the Maori party policy because this party can provide free primary and secondary education to all children and they provide free after school care and holiday programmes for all children and this is a big help for the children.The reason why i supported this party because i did not vote for the party policies but  because i like what their gonna do for their party.The housing policy that i best supported was the NZ First party policy because with this party  if you get in trouble with the  payment of the sale of state house,the government will do something for you and you have to do it.So i think it better to support local councils to provide more pensioner house and require councils to have a socials house plan and you don’t have to worry for anything.The reason why i supported this party because i support and i want to vote for NZ First.the health policy that i best supported was the Top party policy,because with this party  i think it is better to ban junk food advertising and then require schools to have healthy eating policies and raise the drinking age to 20.This is a great thing to do it will give long life for our children and also the people too.I think it is better to raise the drinking age to 20 because it is not time for people under 20 to drink because their still young.The party that i would vote for in 2017 is the NZ First party policy because i love this party and this party i love the idea based on it and how they gonna provide their party.I am a NZ first supporter.

"My Survivor Reflection"

"My Survivor Reflection"
Our Survivors Group consisted of  Jasonette,Soana,Kanesinsu and myself.We chose Jasonette as our leader.We chose our leader by seeing  who work so hard for our group.The reason we want Jasonette to become our leader is because she was the first person who came up with the best ideas first. We also would like her to become the leader because she worked hard on each slide and she made each slide so we could work on it. She is also independent, hard-working and she is persistent with her work. The problem that my group and i have faced is that our communication eg: i am a very shy to talk to my groups about what i know.We solved this problem by working together as a group and they talk to me.The one in our group that made decisions is Jasonette because she is our leader.Yes it is our leader who made decisions because she always bring up the best ideas and then we the rest of our groups can add some to her ideas.We complete this task by working together as group eg: talk to each other,share each other what they know and help to each other.The similarities between pretending to be a survivor on a island(task)and reality is that all our thinking that we used in our task like eg: steps to survive:find food,build a shelter and etc..all of that things that we used in our task,we used it when we land on an deserted island in reality.The differences between pretending to be a survivor on an island (task)and reality is that all the thing that we do on task is just thinking,we don’t do it we just imagine what we will do if we are  on an deserted island.But when we land on an deserted island in reality all our thinking that we do do on task we do it in real life.

"My social study migration reflection"

“My Social Study Reflection”

In term 2 I conducted a Social Inquiry on Migration.My Social Inquiry focused on the movement migrant China to New Zealand.The push reason why Chinese people left their country of origin was because China was beset by overpopulation,land,shortages,famine,drought,banditry,peasant revolt.Another push reason why they left their country is because a steady stream of able-bodied young men sought their fortunes overseas.There is a another push reason why Chinese people left their country is because the government already made a new law in November 2013 that every family need to have only two babies/child because their country was overpopulation.The pull reason why they were attracted to New Zealand was becauseAppo Hocton is the first person who immigrant from China to New Zealand in 1842.He came to New Zealand because b of work,he starting work as a servant and he eventually became a businessman in 1852.

Some came to New Zealand because they were bought to work at Otago goldfields in 1886.Another pull reason why they left their country is because ofThe world war and because some Chinese people immigrant to New Zealand because of gold miners.Some of the obstacle they faced while living in New Zealand is after 1907 all arrival Chinese people are required  to sit English test. From 1920 entry to New Zealand was by permit only,which severely restricted the numbers of Chinese immigrants.Chinese people on New Zealand were deprived of the old age pension until 1936.My personal perspective  The way I see the Chinese immigrant is very hurtful because i can see how they suffer from overpopulation,famine,drought etc….I think it better for the Chinese people to immigrant to overseas country(NZ) because they can have what they want like have a good job,have a good life,feel free from overpopulation,and they could also free from the law that their government has created eg: Each family could only have two children,but here in overseas there is no law like that.

"Mrs Robertson migration story"
