  • Tēnā tātou, Ko Logan tēnēi,

    Nau mai, haere mai ki te akoako mō te tau.


    Hello and welcome to your Global Studies online page for 2022. Our first learning context for the year is 


    Developing our research capabilities in relation to how communities cope with, and recover from, the social and environmental impacts of human disasters. This will supply you with a deeper understanding of some of the current events that are in process around our local and global communities presently.


    We will begin our exploration by looking at some historical examples of local disasters (such as the sinking of the Orpheus in the Manukau harbour) and how our communities succeeded and struggled in their response to the social and environmental impacts of a human disaster.
