Dear Mrs Lindsay,

I would really like it if we could learn more about social media sites and how to use them. It would mostly be aimed to the people who are leaving to high school and are probaly getting a phone just to teach them. So like Instagram, Facebook and Snapchat. To see what is good to post, what is bad to post and what trolls there might be in there network future.

Yours Sincerely,

Yuktha

Day 2

Activity 1 

Family Frue

Dai Henwood hosts New Zealand’s most loved game show; Family Feud!

Each night two families compete to win cash and prizes. If a team wins for five nights they get a new car! All they have to do is guess the most popular responses to a survey of 100 New Zealanders. It’s so much fun, you can’t help but play along at home. Let’s get our Feud on! 

Activity 2

Fact 1: The Beatles' first stop in New Zealand was Wellington. Seven thousand screaming fans – nearly all young women – waited as the band touched down on 21 June 1964. One girl badly hurt her leg trying to climb a wire fence, and two others were forced through the fence because of pushing from behind.

Fact 2: 'Girls were screaming uncontrollably, quite out of their tree,' people remembered. Police used dogs to clear crowds from verandahs and other vantage points. Teenagers pushed over and damaged two police motorbikes; there was so much pushing that one of The Beatles’ cars was shunted backwards, even with the handbrake on.

Fact 3: Fans trekked back to The Beatles' hotel after the concert. The band was stuck inside as crowds gathered outside. Some kept up a late-night vigil on the hill behind the hotel. Others tried to get round the strict security; four girls strolled onto the sixth floor into the arms of Ringo Starr. His response was, ‘Now girls, no nonsense or else I’ll leave.’
