If I was the Prime minister for a day?

Image result for university of aucklandIf I was ever the Prime minister for New Zealand, I would change that you wouldn't have to pay to get into University. If that ever changed, everyone would get to be what ever they wanted to be. Paying four thousand dollars draws people away from studying and making their dreams come true, I would also give a 1 mouth break holiday for the pupils that decide to go to University, each semester would be 12 weeks with a 1  mouth break in between each semester.

Fono Fale



What is the fono fale? (Research)
Fono fale was created by fuimaono karl pulotu-Endermann as a pacific island model of health. It concludes the values of Samoa, Cook Island, Tongan , Fiji  , Niue , and Tokelau


What is different about it compared to Hāuora? The differences about it is that the hauora is the maori type of the 4 walls the fono fale is the pacific type of the 4 walls.
What is similar compared to Hāuora?The similarity about it is that the 4 walls remained the same the only thing that changed about is the names.


Do you like the Hāuora model or the fono fale model more? Why? I think I like the fonofale better than the Hauora because it more about what I know since it includes the values of the pacific islands.  

If you look at the top you can see a picture of what I have created, I created a Volleyball court and compared it to the fono fale and hauora but I changed it into a volleyball court since I like playing sports.

These two pictures are the fono fale and hauora designs, so out task was to change it and make it into our own design.
