Water Footprint

 Millions of people in Africa have to walk about 4 miles there and back just to get contaminated water for their family, while most people can just walk to their tap that flows with clean water.

So in our school, we are doing a Caritas Challenge to know what it feels like in their position by carrying water vessels around the field, except wearing mufti and having prizes.

We took a test on this site called a water calculator that can calculate your water footprint, mine is not so accurate because they didn't have NZ in the country category, so I chose a place from the US.

I reckon you should try this site because it also shows tips on how to save water. I could improve by taking shorter showers and we might get a car that takes up less gasoline. 

Staying Cybersafe

 Today in Wellbeing we learned about being Cybersafe.

Phishing - Phishing is when someone tries to get your information through websites and emails. They can convince you to click on ads or enter private information about yourself, account details. 

Cyberbullying - Cyberbullying is when someone might try to hurt your feelings. They might think:

*You don't know me.

*You can't see me

*It's just a joke!

Being online can make it easy for bullies for these reasons.

If you think you are being bullied, tell an adult that you trust and show them evidence.

Hacking - Hacking can be from (meaning to be) jokes, to very serious scenarios. The Russian found a way to hack into a very important person's personal Gmail.
