The agency has tried their hardest to collect information by going to houses and knocking on their doors over the last couple of months. Last year the national population census reached 83.3 but was aiming for its target of 94 percent. The review also found out that just 68.2 percent of Maori have been filling the census out too.

Manakalani Film Festival
Yesterday the Maniakalani schools went to the Hoyts cinema. We were in the same cinema as people from Tamaki College, Stonefields, Te Kura Kaupapa Maori and Tamaki Primary.
Our film was about sign language, trying to encourage everybody to give it a go because it is really fun and not that difficult to learn. Overall I really like our film as it showcases that sign language is really important and shouldn't been forgotten.
In my opinion if I had to pick a favourite from the other schools it would probably have to be Tamaki College's film about Respect. Now days respect is something that people don't show towards each other and it just reminds us to respect people the way they are.

New Zealand's Largest Waterslide
New Zealand's largest waterslide has opened in Hanmer Springs, North Canterbury. They have named the slide Conical Thrill and believe it or not it is 13.5 meters high.
It includes a twisting hydro slide before a drop that is really steep. It was officially opened on Friday morning and five new pools were also opened.
They gave the honor to a class from Leithfield to have the first slide. The new features took up a lot of years of planning and constructing as well as spending a lot of money for people to enjoy.

Firefighters Using Virtual Headsets
Firefighters have been using a different method to train, with virtual headsets.
They will use the headsets more as it helps them to prepare for the more challenging unsafe and complex scenarios they might go through soon.
In Australia they have made protective clothing that is able to handle the heat from the flames. It means that the firefighters can stay in a big fight of flames and take the risk of burning buildings while still being safe with the gear.
