Daylight Savings

Today for period 3 we have homeroom with Mrs Hastie. Mrs Hastie has asked us to answer some questions on daylight saving in New Zealand. She has given us a document that has all the question and has asked us to make a blog post on the questions we have answered.


Here is the question that answered.

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?

    1. In New Zealand, daylight saving starts on the last Sunday of September.

  2. What year did it start in NZ?

    1. Daylight saving first started in 1927.

  3. Why was Daylight Saving started? 

    1. So that farmers could have more time working at night. It saved the farmer money on power.

  4. 4 I think daylight saving should continue because I like the daylight during the night. I also like it in the morning because when I walk out the door it's nice and sunny. But my favourite thing about daylight saving is everyone gets the time at night confusing so we go to bed later than usual.

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

    1. In Australia, they do have daylight saving in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, Cranberry Territory and Norfolk Islands But not in  Queensland, the Northern Territory, Western Australia, Christmas Island or the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.

  6. Write 3 tips to help others adjust to Daylight Saving this weekend.

    1. One tip is to always check the time

    2. Set alarms in the morning to wake up on time

    3. Avoid coffee and alcohol and don't take long naps.
