    Kia Ora Y7 and welcome to your Global Studies course page for 2022. My name is Mrs. (Rajesh) Joshi and I will be your teacher of Global Studies this year. I was born and brought up in India. I moved to New Zealand about eight years back.

All tasks, activities and assessments will be placed here as well as additional lesson notes and resources. Please make it a habit to check this page at the start of each week. This will ensure that you are aware of any expectations we may have of you at that time.

    I wish you a great year ahead at Water/MHJC and hope that together we will be able to grow our greatness. 

    Demonstrate that you practice the school values 'Learning to Learn (Ako), Compassion (Awhinatanga) Integrity (Pono) and Life-Long Learner (Wānanga)' in word and spirit. Learn and enjoy while you are here. Feel free to see me or email me if you have any concerns/questions about your learning. My email address is: rjoshi@mhjc.school.nz
