Should New Zealand open it's borders?
In my opinion I think New Zealand shouldn’t open their borders because it can be a risk to our country.
Firstly, I believe that New Zealand should not open their borders to other countries because, Say that country has not fully recovered from the Covid outbreak in their country and someone from that area where it happened could have maybe picked up covid and brought it into New Zealand.
That probably wouldn’t be a big issue but since covid 19 is very contagious it can be a very big problem.
Secondly, Technically New Zealand needs their borders open because we still need to allow fruits, vegetables, medicines and more that come from/are in other countries that we need in NZ to stay healthy and well.
However, NZ could just shut the borders for people and not health supplies and food.
Thirdly, Keeping the borders closed can reduce the amount of covid 19 cases in NZ and other countries.
Fourthly, I think they shouldn’t open the borders up right now because, In my opinion it's a bit too soon to judge if there could be another outbreak of covid 19 anywhere.
Say the borders get opened and we get another case of covid in our country and we don’t know what country it came from because we have multiple countries visiting New Zealand.
Lastly, I think they shouldn't open the borders because, When people from overseas or anywhere else in the world come to New Zealand they are hotel quarantined.
Everyone who enters New Zealand currently gets quarantined for 14 days. In my opinion I think that they should be quarantined for at least maybe 18 days max just to be safe.

Why I think Kapa Haka is good for us
Why I think Kapa Haka is good for us
In my opinion I think kapa haka is good for us and for our health and wellbeing.
Firstly, I believe Kapa Haka is good for us because it teaches us about the Maori culture, Waiatas (songs) and different Hakas that are of great importance to the Maori culture.
It’s important to always show respect by participating in the Waiatas/Hakas.
Secondly, I think Kapa Haka is good for us because you can learn new words/phases and what they represent in the Maori culture.
Thirdly, the fun thing about Kapa Haka is you don’t need to have a good singing voice as all the singing voices blend together to become one. Kapa Haka mentally is good for your mind, body and spirit.
Being a part of Kapa Haka means you are with a group of people with a shared interest of wanting to express fun and joyful energy in a welcoming environment.
