Bring Mock Exams and Study Leave Back
The decision to cancel mock examinations and study leave at Westlake Girls High School was one made without the input of the student body- the people that this decision effects the most. The value of practice examinations and study leave is monumentally more than that of only two more weeks of teaching time. This decision should be altered if the student body wishes it so. In this current climate, where there is so much uncertainty having our practice examinations is vital. Considering that man

Adult Satoshi in Pokémon Anime
We Ask gently the staff of the pokemon anime to develop Ash's(Satoshi) in a worthy way: no more reboots, we would like to see Satoshi as an adult (it is preferable to avoid to specify the years of the timeskip, in order to not generate more mistakes with the series in which there was shown an effective temporal ongoing) and that he could reach his goal to be a Pokemon Master. Giving the Pokemon Master title doesn't necessarly mean to take it away from the anime and to conclude it. For us the sto

Fish Farming
The fishing industry is killing the ocean- over fishing just to fill the stupid quotas "needed" to please the markets. The excess fish are just dumped back in the ocean and at that stage, all of them are dead. Fish farming is a solution to save the Ocean and the endangered species living within it. When the commercial fishing boats are trolling along the drop off points and the reefs to catch the snapper, salmon, trout and marlin, a lot of the time they get more than just that. They end up getti

Stop Corruption in NZ Family Court System. Reform Family Court petition
Millions of dollars change hand a year in this industry which is responsible for destroying hundreds of thousands of lives and families each year. When having their authority challenged, the truth told and their incompetencies in their processes and practices highlighted, they resort to bringing into question the state of health of the parent and the emotional well-being of the children, things that should not be a consideration. This cannot continue. Families are being ripped apart purely becau

Support Mike Hosking's Right To Express An Opinion
Many people don't like Mike Hosking or many of his opinions. The fact is however, that he's been given the right to say what he thinks on nationwide radio and TV. Many people have fought tooth and nail (and in some cases, lost their lives) for us to have a society where we're free to express those opinions. We the undersigned, do not believe Mr Hosking should be removed from his role or roles in broadcasting, simply because he is expressing an opinion.

Say NO to Council plans for Rubbish and Recycling
SAY NO TO COUNCIL PLANS for Rubbish and Recycling in Tauranga and Western Bay of Plenty. Tauranga and Western Bay Councils are currently carrying out a review of their Waste Minimisation Plan.
