Hello Wills,
ReplyDeleteI'm Evelyn and I will be working with the Summer Learning Journey team for 2018-2019 to read and follow amazing blog posts like yours! I am so excited to read what pops into that wonderful brain of yours and hope you have fun on this journey!
Those are some interesting facts about New Zealand! I've lived here my whole life and had no idea about some of these facts so thank you for telling me a bit more about our country! I think the Maori name for New Zealand and it's English meaning is so unique and cool, don't you agree? Your second fact is surprising to me, have you ever been to Australia before? I've been to Australia two times and both times I visited Sydney. It's a similar city to Auckland (where I live) except the shopping malls and amusement parks over there are much, much bigger! Do you enjoy shopping or going on rides in the amusement park? I think it's really fun to walk around with friends and have a good time.
Happy blogging,
Evelyn :D
