1.

Cut the veggies in a semi-decent way, don’t be an animal about it.

2.

Get some oil hot in a pan. Get those onions and garlic frying.

3.

Add the capsicum and mince into the pan, get that shit hot enough to cook the living hell out of the bacteria having a flat party in there.

4.

This is where the beans, tomato paste, taco seasoning, and spinach join in. Get them going, you may need water to get it to a saucy consistency. Fuck knows.

5.

Heat your oven up and get it hot.

6.

Put your corn chips on the plate and add some cheese.

We’re gonna melt that shit over them in the oven. Now don’t be a dumbass and use a teatowel, no trips to A&E because you grabbed a hot nachos plate.

7.

Get them in the oven and cook until melty.

Your experiences matter It can feel isolating to be at uni and to face problems.

For example, you can’t get your head around the process to make a complaint, or perhaps you are experiencing racism or discrimination.

This is where the Code for learner wellbeing and safety comes in.

The Code aims to ensure we feel a sense of belonging in classrooms and beyond, including in student accommodation.

It supports students’ wellbeing, voice and identity.

It also requires your uni to have culturally responsive support services to ensure your mental

and physical wellbeing are well looked after.

The Code is all about improving your tertiary education experience and creating opportunities to talk to your uni if you face problems or have ideas about how to make things better.

Also be encouraged to talk to local or national student associations who will do their best to represent you and amplify your feedback about what you’re experiencing: the great, the good, the bad and the ugly.

And if you are still facing issues, you can talk to NZQA.
