Day light savings

 Hi guys and welcome back to another blog post. Today I will be talking about day light savings in a document. 

Research and answer the following questions about Daylight Saving NZ in a blog post


  1. When does Daylight Saving happen each year in New Zealand?

Sunday 27 September - Sunday 4 April


  1. What year did it start in NZ?

1927


  1. Why was Daylight Saving started? Write at least 2 sentences to answer this question.

The main reason is to make better use of daylight during the spring and summer months, so there is an extra hour of sunlight in the evening instead of the morning. 


  1. Read the following article and write a paragraph (3-8 sentences) on whether or not you think that Daylight Saving should continue in New Zealand.

By allowing more people to come home during daylight hours, permanent daylight savings could decrease the risk of car accidents which means saving more than 360 lives each year. What's more, making year-round daylight savings and having fewer hours of darkness could help reduce crime

  1. Do all the states in Australia have Daylight Saving? Who does and who doesn’t?

New south wales, victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, the queen capital territory, and Norfolks island.


  1. Write 3 tips to help others adjust to Daylight Saving.

Don't take long naps

Avoid coffee and alcohol.
