A ratio of 1 teacher for 23 students applies for year 11 students, however support staff can be counted as teachers so the reality is that class sizes can be much higher.
What do you think are the ideal sizes for classrooms?

Did you know that Greenview Park has multiple indoor and outdoor spaces perfect for afternoon tea or a cuppa?
These spaces are communal, and all are welcome, including visitors and family.

Pi Day is on March 14, and any day that combines fun, education, and pie is a day worth celebrating! Pi, also known by the Greek letter “π,” is a constant value used in math that represents the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter, which is just about 3.14….15…9265359… … View morePi Day is on March 14, and any day that combines fun, education, and pie is a day worth celebrating! Pi, also known by the Greek letter “π,” is a constant value used in math that represents the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter, which is just about 3.14….15…9265359… (and so on). Not only that, but the fourteenth of March is also Albert Einstein’s birthday, so all together it’s nothing short of a mathematician’s delight.
After four years of disruption, high schoolers all over Auckland finally got the Polyfest they had been waiting for.

It was estimated about 60,000 people attended Polyfest last week, where 8000 students from 181 cultural groups representing 55 schools performed traditional speech, song and dance.
It’s the first time in several years that the festival has gone ahead without a hitch, following cancellations due to the Christchurch terror attacks in 2019 and the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
For most, it’s not about the win, but the chance to celebrate their culture and embrace their Pasifika heritage.
Manurewa High School’s Sarai Makara-Moreland, 16, was completely out of breath as she stepped off the Cook Islands stage following their high-energy performance.
She said it was a “real privilege” and “a blessing” to get on stage tell the audience: “Hey look, this is my culture. This is where I’m from.”
“The most important thing was we made it up there, and we performed as a team. We are going out, win or lose, as a team.”
Read more of our coverage at Stuff.co.nz, and tell us below - did you watch or compete at Polyfest? How did it go?
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Internet is something we need these days for work, study, keeping in touch with loved ones or just to watch a movie! It's another bill to manage right?!

What is Rum Pot? It's the Easiest Way to Preserve Fresh Fruit - see www.eater.com... for more info.

I couldn't find a single Rum Pot on Trademe or FBM, but Rum Pot is VERY popular in Germany (my parents loved putting some on ice cream for desert), and the pot comes with a leaflet about the history (pictured) as well as recipes on how to make proper Rum Pot (buyer's eyes only).
So why not surprise your guests with something they most likely don't know?
It's not mass produced but made by Mayfire Pottery, a small but quite exquisite pottery in Gisborne - judging by this Rum Pot they do excellent work, so that could also be a good investment for the future (please don't break it - it's by far the prettiest rum pot I've seen).
Pickup in Green Bay (we live opposite Green Bay High School) preferred though it is possible to send if buyer pays p&p, or if you are outside Auckland then maybe a friend of yours in Auckland can do the pickup.
As I work from home anyway I'm home pretty much all the time, so just let me know a time you would like to come round.
I have a whole household and shed to clear - so please have a look at my other listings too!
