Facts about New Zealand

Hey, bloggers

I have a quick question, have you ever done summer learning journey? Today I'm going to talk about facts about the summer learning journey.



1 .According to Māori mythology, much of Aotearoa New Zealand was formed when Māui, a powerful demigod, fished it out of the sea. Legend has it that Māui created a magical fish hook from the jawbone
of his grandmother and that one day he took his hook, boarded a boat, and rode out into the middle of
the Pacific Ocean. Once at sea, he threw his magical hook into the water and caught a fish. This ‘fish’
was actually the North Island of New Zealand!

2. New Zealand is a really special environment that many of the plants and trees found in New
Zealand are not found anywhere else in the world. These plants and trees are endemic to our country. Thousands of people go to visit Tāne Mahuta every year. Would you like to be one of those people who got to see Tāne Mahuta in real life? Why or why not?

    It's so great to see that you're doing some of the Summer Learning Journey activites - although it looks like you're doing last year's activities which were all about the environment. We really hope you join this year's Summer Learning Journey which has heaps of cool activities about 'People Who Have Changed the World'.

    I really enjoyed looking at your blog today and I hope that you will keep blogging with us over the summer. This week is the teaser week activities, and on the 16th of December you can start the Week 1 activities.
