Commentary:
Eighty-six percent of students were able to identify one or more basic necessities for life. Fewer students however, were able to give appropriate answers as to how those needs are accessed by themselves and Manda. Language complexity (e.g. the term “whainga oranga”) may have contributed to difficulty some students had with this task.
