Accenture Hour of Code

Our Trip to Accenture

Today a group of us went on a trip to Accenture for our ICT Trip.When we arrived we had a few snacks before we got introduced.  For the rest of our trip we stayed in a room called Atutahi and in that room we played our coding games and learned more about Hour Of Code. We got introduced to Karl (main Presenter), Dan, Dimple,  Sid (Tech Pro), Breahna, Mark (Virtual Reality) & Emma.  We also had the chance to introduce ourselves following with this question "What do you want to do after school?".

Later on we were on a Skype call with Timoti.  He introduced himself and told us many things of what he did during his journey of being in a cool company like this. He was in Sydney for a conference which was why he couldn't make it for us to meet him in person.We also found out something so cool about him is that he said a speech in front of two thousand people which from my opinion that's pretty cool.

While we were playing our code games, some of us were able to go into the Mclaren Room where we played games using Samsung 8 glasses thing. I enjoyed it and honestly I would love to go back and have another experience so that I could learn more things then the basics. I honestly enjoyed my time at Accenture. Did you know that the word "Accenture" comes from the two words Accent and Future? I was pretty shocked when I heard about the 2 combinations.Thanks to those tutors for having us there for most of the day.

Accenture DigiTech IT trip

Today a lucky few of us were chosen to go on a trip to the city to learn more about technology. What I found interesting that in most careers there aren't just pens and paper, these are also a technology side to it.

What I loved about when Timoti spoke, was that he mentioned that there are opportunities out there for Maoris and Pacific people. Like us pacific students, I think we need to take those opportunities that would probably lead to success or even lead to becoming the first child in your family to go to university.

The code games were fun, I enjoyed it. I think I know what Karl was trying to say about technology. When I look out into the world, technology is all around us, and we use it in almost everything, every day of our lives. Technology has made a huge change.

My dream career is to be an Architect. I looked at the opportunities I could get when Karl because of technology. I didn't want to leave but I actually enjoyed my time there.

Our New Government!!!

Maybe throughout the next three years, things won't be the same as it was with National. Maybe in the future all three parties can come together as 1 government and hopefully they can work together to do what's go for New Zealand.
