Advent

How can we use Advent to open ourselves and let Jesus become a

bigger part of our lives?

What is Advent?

Advent is a time of year to prepare for the coming of Jesus Christ,
the Son Of God. This celebration occurs  yearly, but can be celebrated

by two kinds of people, christians and non-christians. Advent is a time
to open our hearts and change our attitudes. The word Advent means “coming” in Latin. There are 4 candles, symbolizing Advent.

Each one represents one of the four Sundays in Advent.

Three of the candles are the colour violet, leaving the remaining

candle the colour rose.

Thinking about our attitudes, we can recognise what needs to be

changed so that we can have a strong relationship with God, we
could also be more loving and caring to each other. Appreciating

the season of Advent as a gift to be used to make a straight path

and to  follow Jesus’ footsteps, by learning more about Him.

Changing our attitudes can change our lives and we could be

a more better person. Changing our attitudes can also change the lives of others.

Astria- Countdown To Impact

A student in another school has recently blogged that:

“Students don’t learn much playing this game called Astria – Countdown to Impact: Their time could be better spent doing other things”.

I disagree, this game helps us to learn how biased or true the text from the game is. In this game we had to stop an asteroid and find a solution to stop it. I had to read and find 6 documents and give them to the council. I have to rate how truth, bias and factual the text from the documents are. There will be questions I have to answer and I can choose disagree, partly agree and agree.

The ozone layer protects the entire earth from the ultraviolet rays of the sun also including the animals, the humans and the plants. But the chlorofluorocarbons damages parts of the ozone layer. Now the ozone layer are harming the plants and animals and including us.

Kauri Dieback

It has been brought to our attention that the infectious disease that is killing our native Kauri Giants and perhaps limiting the growth of future Kauri, has been gravely affected by the contamination of footwear that can be passed on by miniscule spores.

The Department of Conversation has actioned an awareness campaign using a rage of media to inform and promote awareness not only for the New Zealanders but also for the hundreds of tourists that visit our beautiful land.

Kauri has been infected from Kauri Dieback which is a result because of the roots of the kauri have been disturbed by us.  It may also damage the tissues of the roots that carries the nutrients inside the tree. The movement of we do to the soil causes the Kauri trees to be infected. It damages the branches and it makes the leaves fall off there branches.
