Yesterday the BNZ came to talk to us in the Workroom and they talked to us about money. How do they make money? They make money in Canada and it is called mint. 

It was fun. I felt happy because I got chocolate.

Banks save money for stuff that’s good, like food. That’s why we have banks. Money is made in Canada and the plastic is made in Australia. That’s how money is made.

A bank saves money and changes it. It can also give you money if you put in your Kiwibank card. There are all kinds of banks. My family uses the Kiwibank because that’s the best bank in New Zealand. Lots of people use it but kids aren’t allowed to use it.

We went to the BNZ talk and they talked about the bank. They talked to us about money and that the people make our money in Canada. They donate the money to New Zealand. They said the plastic they use to make our money comes from Australia. I felt happy because we felt $100.
