Please can you contribute to my project, a quick quiz?Hey everyone,
I’m doing a project for school on what people from overseas think of and know about New Zealand. Here is a little quiz for you to fill out and PM me the reply. It’s best if you PM me because otherwise the replies to this topic will give away answers. I need as many people as possible to do this to make the results as fair as possible, it won’t take long to complete and it’ll really help my project.
Please don’t look any of these questions up cos that will screw up my data. It’s okay if you don’t know much! It’s all contributing to my study. Thanks so much for helping!!!
