There had been four new laws that has been placed down on the 1st of july 2019.

Retailers selling single-use plastic bags or distributing them are officially illegal. Every supermarket to dairy will have to abide to the new law.  What is also changing will be the money people get while they're on parental leave. They will receive an extra $20 a week in their pocket.

The prime minister Jacinda Ardern recommends it to keep up with the living cost. The last two laws are an increase in the tax on petrol and landlords are required to insulate their homes.

Trip To The Tamaki Estuary !

On monday our whole school went down near the tamaki estuary at dunkirk. We looked at the direction where the rubbish comes from and where it leads. The rubbish comes from near our school than goes into the streams and leads out to the birds in the estuary. Which is very bad because it can cause a lot of birds to die when they mistake rubbish as food.

So our school walked along dunkirk rd towards the park picking up every rubbish we could spot. Even though I and winnie were walking in the back we collected heaps of rubbish the others couldn't spot. We found lots of newspaper in between the rocks and a ton of glass bottles from people drinking. We managed to make our way to the park with a lot of rubbish we found along the rocks.

I think the trip was a successful clean up, It could've been better but I reckon we did a great job.
