Winter Learning Journey/ 8th July Saturday 2017
100% Pure New Zealand
Activity 1
  1. Nearly four hundred years ago, while the Europeans were worrying about falling off the edge of the earth, Maori people had voyaged thousands of miles across the unknown Pacific Ocean in small canoes. They had then become the first inhabits in Aotearoa New Zealand. From then till now, Maori Culture plays a very important part in New Zealand's identity.
  2. Many New Zealand have grown a great passion for the outdoors. Fun fact actually, many kiwis in new zealand actually own their own boat, this can cause them to have so much fun as their are many things to enjoy on the water. Yachting, Kayaking, Windsurfing and even rowing scene. Many people actually come to New Zealand to enjoy our beautiful outdoors as well as having delightful activities outside to enjoy.                                                                                            Camping, Fishing, Bush Walks, Hiking and beach walks are other alternatives to enjoy in New Zealand. There's also a college named after Sir Edmund Hillary, the man who had conquered Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world. He was a big deal to New Zealand as he was from Auckland.
  3. Currently, Rugby football is the most popular sport throughout New Zealand. As the All Blacks also had a recent winning in the RWG (Rugby World Cup.) It has to have you provide Mateship. (Mateship is being loyal to your friends, and having prized social value.) The value of Mateship is still seen in rugby and other sports today.


Activity 2


  1. In the North Island, you can experience seeing very beautiful beaches and walk along the coast line while staring out into the beautiful view.
  2. You can not only view Rangitoto island but their is also a bush walk all the way up to the top. But not only that, Rangitoto is also made from a volcanic island!
  3. Enjoying a late afternoon walk can also be something to enjoy. In auckland there are a variety of spacious parks to walk through, maybe with your family or just going for a short stroll.
  4. The auckland museum is something most people would love to take a visit to. In the museum there are a variety of cultural things and even a long wall of all of the people that went to war. Besides that they're a lots of things to enjoy at the museum.
  5. Visiting the stylish shops of Ponsonby is something you would like to enjoy. It has various shops that you could take a look in or even buy some trendy new clothing items.


Bonus Activity
I added these color because: The green symbolises our big landscapes, blue describes the big seas and oceans and black is just the other color I thought would look nice and easy-going.

Kia ora Moana,

Welcome back to the holiday blogging programme. It is so great to have you back!!

I hope that you enjoyed learning a little bit about New Zealand and about our own 'backyard' here in Auckland. We really are lucky to live in such a cool place, aren't we? We have beautiful beaches, amazing volcanic hills, great restaurants and shopping places and plenty of museums and galleries. I personally love walking through the bush and going for a swim at the beaches out on the west coast of the city. I live out west so I'm able to get to Piha beach pretty easily. Do you enjoy swimming Moana? If so, where do you usually go to swim?

I hope that you'll continue to blog with us over the next few weeks. We really enjoyed blogging with you last summer and are looking forward to doing it again this winter!

Cheers,
Rachel :)
