  • Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges Report
    Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges report The seventh annual “Next Top Engineering Scientist competition” was held from 9am to 6pm on Saturday August 1st, 2015. The question posed was “If a New Zealand student uploads a video clip that goes viral, how long will it take before 1% of the world’s population has seen it?” Teams calculated answers that ranged from just a few minutes through to never. The quality of submissions was generally high, with many teams using innovative approaches to solving the problem, including an increasing number of teams making use of computer programming. As with previous years the competition problem was purposefully constructed to be open-ended in nature. To answer the problem required teams to make sensible assumptions around various aspects of the problem including (but not limited to): • The definition of a viral video • The characteristics of the video (e.g. language, length and genre) • The potential audience • The propagation channels (e.g. youtube, facebook, twitter, etc.) Participation Statistics We had 179 teams from 68 schools participate this year (from Dargaville and Whangarei up in the north down to Oamaru and Dunedin in the South). 146 teams had four members and 33 teams had three members. The break down by year level was as follows: Year 11 1 Mixed year 11/12 2 Mixed year 11/13 1 Year 12 70 Mixed year 12/13 29 Year 13 76 A total of 173 teams managed to get a report in by the 6pm deadline and we had many “Action shot” photos submitted during the course of the day.

  • Opaki 1868 1873 1876
    Opaki Plain, 30 ; Castle Point and Alfredton, 80. Total, 500. The Mercury says :— Calling out the Militia has strengthened the number of Opaki: 1878-Present. Opaki School was originally further North volunteers very materially, and many men who object to serve in the by Mikimiki Road and when Mikimiki School was opened the Militia hasten to enrol themselves (entirely regardless of the school was moved to be near the Railway Station. I can find no meaning of the word) as Volunteers. The Greytown Infantry has mention of an Upper Opaki School as I have seen written. A number increased the number of its men, owing to a threat that if the of references to this are to do with the Original Opaki School and company did not comprise a sufficient number, the members would then Mikimiki. 6 kilometres north of Masterton just off State be enrolled as Militiamen; while the members of the Cavalry found Highway 2 they could be independent of Captain Donald's troop, and form one of their own. A similar increase has been noticed in the other Volunteer Companies, and we must agree with a remark made by the Adjutant, that there is no recruiting sergeant for the Volunteers so efficient as the Militia being in the back ground PP 1873 3rd June 1873 In another week's time that great boon to Masterton, the Waipoua Bridge, will be completed, which throws open the Opaki Block, and pedestrians will be able to travel and enjoy the scenery, and visit the various rising farms, where more corn is grown than in in any other part of the Wairarapa- The frontages to the main road near the bridge have already risen in value.
