This week we started doing the Summer Learning Journey and the task we had to do this week was in the beginning the legend of New Zealand. The Summer Learning Journey teaches you to keep doing work and it helps children with there learning in the holidays before coming back to school, also it does work that you do at school but different. Today I did the first activity and we had to go onto this website and choose 3 top facts about New Zealand. I learnt how to get 3 top facts from the website we had to get it from and write a blog post about what I had to do.
1. The Auckland City Sky Tower is the tallest freestanding structure in the Southern Hemisphere at 328 meters high.
2. The Maori name of New Zealand is Aotearoa which means the land of the long white cloud.
3. Gisborne is the first city in the world to the sunrise because it is 496.3 kilometers away from the international date line.
Kia ora Miiana,
