    Visually and verbally, the work you have produced is of a high standard. Your information is easy to read. You have supplied references which is great. You have demonstrated a high level of thinking by adding how theses events impacted on New Zealand society.

Blood red and crisp in the night air, defiance rests in my shivering hands, juicy and sweet. How I long to take just one bite, to sink my teeth into it’s perfect skin. Street rats hurry behind me, innocent, helpless, silent and stealthy, unnoticed beneath the blanket of stars. But where would we hide it all?
