Exploring our national current events

Each day, newspaper editors around the world must make desicions about which stories they will run. We explored the different types of current events that are happening in New Zealand, thought about why the story made the news and plotted the location on a google map. Most of the articles that Marieta and I read happened in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Together our favourite article was the new Wellington sculpture showing a large hand balanced on two fingers, with a human face on the palm.
