Q9: What do you think the Prime Minister’s main job is during the day?

The Prime Minister of New Zealand (Māori: Te Pirimia o Aotearoa) is the head of government of New Zealand. The current Prime Minister is Bill English of the National Party, who took office on 12 December 2016.
The Prime Minister is the most senior government minister, and chairs cabinet meetings. The office exists by a long-established convention, which originated in New Zealand's former colonial power, the United Kingdom. The convention stipulates that the Governor-General of New Zealand (the monarch's representative) must select as Prime Minister the person most likely to command the confidence of the House of Representatives. This individual is typically the leader of the political party that holds the largest number of seats in that chamber.
The title "Prime Minister" had made its first formal appearance in the 1873 Schedule of the Civil List Act, but originally the head of government was titled colonial secretary or first minister. This was changed in 1869 to "premier". That title remained in use for more than 30 years, being informally changed by Richard Seddon to "Prime Minister" in 1901 during his tenure in office.[3] Following the declaration of New Zealand as a dominion in 1907, the term "Prime Minister" has been used exclusively.

Q10: Even though you can’t vote what are some ways we can make sure our voices get heard?

making political stands

ENDANGERED ANIMALS

ENDANGERED ANIMALS 1 Hi my name is Dylan.  Today I am here to tell you about a few endangered animals. But first, who here has ever been up close with a majestic creature such as a tiger?  I bet it was an amazing experience you won’t forget.   Have you ever wondered how many there are in the world, or if they’ll be around in years to come? Perhaps not…But I have… 2. So today I am here to tell you about three endangered animals in particular. They are the Bengal tiger, the mountain gorilla and the Amur leopard. But before I tell you about them, let’s talk about how they’re losing their habitat. 3. Humans such as us are destroying their habitat for resources of our own, but should we be taking their habitat, their home. Why can’t we leave them alone?
