Family Luncheon
Family Luncheon is always a special time for our students where they can invite 2 guests from their families and prepare a three-course meal for them to savour.
For the first course, our Advanced students prepared Grilled hapuka with rosemary, capers and olives. Chicken ballontine with corn and baked cherry tomato, potato rösti and creamy broad beans for the main course and Plum trifle with Parfait au Armagnac to finish.
Speeding
A common reason drivers speed is the misperception it will substantially reduce the amount of time it takes to arrive at their destination. But this isn’t the case. For example, a driver who needs to get to a destination 40 km away and the speed limit is 70 km/h, then the journey will take 34 minutes. If the driver speeds and drives 80 km/h, then they will get to their destination in 30 minutes. But by saving four minutes of their time, drivers speeding at 80 km/h increase their crash risk by at least 60%. Is that worth it?
Is it time to change the approach to speed education by using game theory?
