In politics hurumanu we are learning about the government. Today we have been learning about referendum, which is a general vote by an individual and they have to vote yes or no. People who are allowed to vote have to be 18 years old or over, be a citizen or permanent resident of New Zealand, they have to suffer from a terminal illness that likely to end their life within 6 months, have a significant and ongoing decline in physical capability, experience unbearable suffering that cannot be eased and they have to be able to make an informed decision about assisted dying. There are some negatives and positives about voting, some negatives can be that doctors who are assigned to give patients the medicine might not feel comfortable doing this because doctors are the ones who help treat or save people. A positive is that the end of life choice is helping people with terminal illness and letting them decide not anyone else. I think that any age can vote or maybe those 10 years old and under, maybe their parents can help them decide?.

The marketing mix
PRODUCT
In business everyone is learning how to make a business with their team mates and how to sell their product. Our team has decided to make crunchy cheese rolls, we got this idea off YouTube and it looked delicious and was easy to make. My team are aiming to make our cheese rolls differently so they don't look like plain cheese rolls, we are to make sure they are all the same sizes so they are worth the price. To make our product we need all the ingredients which are , bread, evaporated milk, onions , mustard powder, white pepper, Edam cheese, onion soup powder, bread and softened butter. Our product fits into the foods category. To make it easy for them to eat, they will be served on a serviette.
How did you work out what price you were going to sell your product at?
- We have decided to sell our product for $2.00 because we are gonna make a small size and a big size. We think that $2.00 and is a reasonable amount to sell our product
How will you ensure that your product is worth the price you are asking people to pay ( quality control)?
- Buy 2 get a sauce packet for free
- We are going to make sure that everyone gets what they paid for so it is worth it
What price are others ( B&E group/real world business) charging for the same good ( Use a table to show this)
-
What else will you consider when it comes to the price of your product ?
- The size because we need to make sure they are all the same size so that it is worth the price and everyone is getting a fair amount and not wasting their money on buying our product
PLACE
- A good location where we can set up and sell our product would be inside because we are serving hot food and we wouldn't want it to be cold. We don really mind because it depends if anyone wants to buy our product, but we kind of rely on people who walk pass and maybe ask them if they want to buy our product. No one else is selling something similar to our product, and our product will stand out because no one else is selling them.
PROMOTION
- Our product promotion strategy is hanging posters of our products around the school. We do not mind whoever wants to buy our product because we are aiming to sell at least half of our product and make some money. Our team are only focusing on having a good quality product and the price, we are not worrying too much about the where we will set up because we don´t mind. Our product for any any age, so teachers and student and visitors can buy them.

Art
In our art option class we are learning about photography, we are looking at photomontage. Each one of us has created our own photomontage. We have also been learning about Hannah hoch who is a German artist that is best known for her artwork including her photomontage work. We have been learning about this so we can learn new things about photography and create something creative. My photomontage I created was basically 3 different unusual sculptures. Each image has different photo fragments that either have a face, hair or body that I have cropped out to make a new image. My learning about photomontage or photography was very exciting because I created images by cutting , gluing, rearranging , and overlapping two or more images. And my finished work looked kind of realistic. And I tried my best to be creative. I want the audience to comment on what they think about my work or how they feel about it
