Millennials in the Workplace ~ Reflection Section.

     Simon Sinek ~ Millennials in the Workplace


Date ~ 

10th June 2021

Text Type ~ 

Interview on YouTube

Channel That Filmed ~

IQ (Inside Quest)


Purpose ~ 

To help understand Millennials and improve wellbeing through reducing screen time.

So today in Wananga we learned about how screens and digital devices can really take over our lives and also mess with our love if we ever try to get a job and were addicted to our phones, and if you're on your phone while in a job interview it can be classed as disrespect and makes the people around feel like that you don't care about what's going on around you and you don't want the job.


He was also talking about how you shouldn't be charging your phone next to if you are trying to sleep because anytime during the night you will try and go on it and you wouldn't be able to head back to sleep since you've been around bright lights for too long.


There was a key point that he had a chat about while he was in the interview, he was talking about how that the younger generation on their phone is like adults gambling and smoking because for adults that is addicting and like for kids and teenagers being on your phone is addictive.


He says that our younger generation is bad for this stuff because our body drags us to social media like checking how many followers we have on Instagram, what is our highest snap score, how many friends we have on Facebook, and how many likes we have on a certain Instagram post, we just have the urge to check it every day or even every 3 hours because we are so caught up on our phone and devices.

The Cardiac Muscle (Heart)

 - Brings oxygen into our body
    - It allows us to exhale
       carbon dioxide
       from our body
The Cardiac Muscle (Heart)
The heart is basically a pumping station and pumps blood around the body and is made up of 4 chambers.

This pumping action creates what we know as our pulse. 
The blood travels around the body in vessels called:
     Arteries have a muscular wall and take blood away from the heart
      Arterioles.               Small arteries 
      Capillaries.              This is where nutrients and gases are exchanged
     Venuoles.                Small veins
       Veins.                Veins don't have a muscular wall but have valve like structures which prevents blood flowing backwards and take blood of to the heart

The blood carries gasses and nutrients to the body and take away waste products such as carbon  dioxide

Christchurch Rubbish

Christchurch Rubbish

So this week and last week in Social Studies we have been learning about Rubbish and how we should properly recycle our Rubbish by also putting the right Rubbish in the right bin that it should be put in, here is some information that I have found out and came here to share with you what I have learned.

When our yellow bins get collected by the Rubbish Trucks, if the trucks sense more than 10% or more rubbish they don't collect the rubbish and if this continues to happen the bins get confiscated, then if they want to get the bins back they have to pay $97.65 to get the bin back, and they have to promise that they'll put the right rubbish in the right bins, somehow they get tracked to see if they are sticking to the rule of the agreement, there are many yuck and stupid things that get put into the bins, stuff such as Guns, Dead Animals, Plastic, Glass, Cardboard & Much more waste.

Reflection Section ~ Wananga

Fitness.

So this week in P.E we were learning about how good Fitness can be for you, how being fit can help in life, and things can also ruin you from being fit.

Here are some questions that we got asked to answer

What does being physically fit mean?

To be physically fit means to be in a state of health and well-being. Physical fitness is defined as the body’s ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist disease, and to react to emergency situations.

What makes us unfit?

Diet, Your Body, Smoking & Drugs.

In my eyes, I would think that I am fit for my age and I would like to stay that way as long as I can.

Eastern Pacific Ocean

Eastern Pacific Ocean.


Garbage In The Ocean.



Garbage in the ocean has been causing a lot of problems in the world, affecting marine life every day and destroying reefs that could never come back and live. Littering is a major issue worldwide. Littering really affects the oceans, the plastics we use from plastic bottles have been killing whales.



Everyday Use Of Plastic.



The daily use of plastic is growing but also decreasing by a little bit, the litter that people are picking up are being replaced by plastic that we have dropped hopefully by accident, The plastic that we use is being dropped in the ocean which is degrading into microplastics where they are infecting every living thing that needs water to survive. 



Government Trying To Make A Change.



Governments have been trying to stop pollution in any shape or form but they can’t force people to do it what they want, that’s why they try to spread the message around the world as much and we can, to do as much as we can to the best of our ability.

Burger Competition

Burger Competition.

Sadly I was not here on the day these were made but these are the results that my teammates gave me.

Flavor ~ The flavor was the best and the spices and the mixed herbs that they put into the pattie made the pattie even better, they added cheese into the pattie too, which made the texture of the pattie better as well.

Texture ~ The texture was exactly the same as a normal burger but the Brioche Buns and Pattie made the whole thing mushy and softer, overall the burger tastes excellent.

Color ~ The Burger looked like it had a lot of colors but there was still not enough color for the judges, I can see red from the Tomatoes, but apparently the Tomatoes needed to be thicker, Green from the Lettuce, Brown from the Pattie and the buns, Yellow from the Cheese & Cream from the sauce!


Living Springs Camp 2021

Living Springs Camp 2021


So at Camp, we met up with the other Project K Group they were a mix between Shirley & Linwood, but we met up with them in the morning and spent the whole night with them to get to know them, all of us got along pretty well we talked, laughed, joked and smiled a lot while we were hanging out with the Community Group.


But after that, we went for a night walk but when we were walking we got a surprise that we were walking to a spot with you have a rope and you can either go blindfolded or go normally ( either way you couldn't see ) but I was sad because everyone got offered a blindfold and I didn't and I didn't get the chance to do it because I was too far up the hill to go back down and get one.


Groups go separated into 10 people in each, so 10 people head off then we wait for them to go and then another ten gets to go, but we didn't realize how fast we were going so we had to wait because the girl in front wanted to go fast, we waited for then to go and get to the top while we were just chilling in the bottom waiting until they called and said that they were at the top, so and soon as we went to walk the girl in front slipped but I was luckily enough to be standing right there to be able to save her, she wanted me to stay close to her just in case she fell again ( and there were more times she slipped ) but she was really thankful when we got up to the top.


So during the 3 Day Camp at Living Springs, we had some people come to the Camp Ground and teach us what to do if we ever got lost, stranded, or hurt in the middle of nowhere, There were 3 guys there teaching us all different things that they do for LandSAR.


I forgot all of their names but this is what they do for their job.

Guy #1 ~ Uses his dog to trace down people that are lost, have gone missing, or have stolen someone.

Guy #2 ~ Uses a no-legged stretcher and carries people that have badly injured themselves and can't walk or paralyzed people.

Guy #3 ~ Is a tracker he tracks people that have tried to hide and run from them after they have done really bad stuff and trying to get away, but he tracks the footprints that he had got given with fresh and old track marks.
