Summer learning journey! Week 3 day 1 - The hot hot summer! P.s I have a video ;)

Hey Bloggers!

Hope you have had a wonderful holiday so far, and you know what? Christchurch is really getting a temperature, yesterday got about up to 30 degrees! (that is quiet hot for us)

Hmm, what is the best time to come and travel here?

I don't know, maybe spring would be nice!

The summer learning journey site says...

On your blog, tell us what time of year you think is best for tourists for come and visit. Be sure to share at least three things that tourists could do while they were here in NZ.

South Island

Well to answer your question there I think that about in the middle/early September to october were the cherry blossoms (down south) are in full bloom, Christchurch normally has it's blossoms in September, while places like Ashburton and down south more are more into October. You can come around in Christchurch at Hagley Park which is located near the city center. Ashburton Domain and gardens are also good places to go too.

There are also different activities like skiing and snowboarding. If you go a bit earlier the ski fields still may be open in early September.

North Island

In the north island (the same period of year, Spring) it can get quiet warm and it is a great time to spend it outdoors, you can go to different scenery, and Auckland will make it a great place to walk around near the sky tower. You can also spend your time at also One tree hill, that also has a park you can visit.

So that was my ideas, sorry but I didn't know much about the north island since I don't live there but I had some rough idea.

Ok let's move onto...

You are my sunshine!

On your blog, list five different things that we can do to protect ourselves from the sun this summer!

Here is a video that I made about being sunsmart.

Enjoy!

Summer learning journey - week 2 Day 5 Activty 2

Hello bloggers!

Today I am back with a new post!

What about we go swimming in some rivers today!

But make sure that the rivers aren't polluted

here is two rivers (does it count as a stream?) that has been polluted in New Zealand.

Enjoy!

River/streams name : Karamu stream

Location : Karamu, Hawke's bay

What are doing to help/ reduce the pollution? : LAWA (Land Air Water Aotearoa) are testing the water of the rivers to help with the pollution.

River/streams name : Heathcote river

Location : Christchurch

What are doing to help/ reduce the pollution? : They are thinking, instead of putting the sewage in rivers they can hold them in tanks for a while, when the system died down they can treat it and put in back in again.

Summer learning journey - Activity 1, Day 4

Hello Bloggers!

I am back today with another post, for the summer learning journey, hope you have had a great holiday day so far.

Well we can't waste any time, because we are jumping to Milford Sound.

Here is a quick snappy video that will take you through the reason why I have chosen to go on the helicopter ride there.

Underneath the video I will write down all the text that is added in the video if it's a bit too fast to read.

Enjoy!

Why have I chosen the helicopter?

I am pretty small, on foot is a bit hard. The boat could be an option, but I don't really want to be on it for 3 hours. But the helicopter, it's perfect for me. It has really good sites from high above. It will be something that I have never experienced before and it looks pretty relaxing. So that's why I think in the air is good for me!

Summer learning journey - Activity 1 - Week 2 Day 3

Hello bloggers!

I am back with another activity finished, just to note I have been busy and I will try to keep updated.

I will try to finish activity and comment on all your blogs too.

Today I have done Activity 1

The instructions say to

'Tell us on your blog whether you are a night owl or a early riser, then tell us about the rest of your family'

So here it is

Enjoy!

I am a early riser since I wake up at roughly from 6 to 7 o'clock, I am not able to stay any later than 11 o'clock.

My mum, is also a early riser that wakes every single day at about 6:20 a.m to make both me and our brother's lunch, if in the weekends she wakes up about at 8 at the latest.

My brother, Kyle is a very early riser and sometimes wakes up even earlier than me, but he goes to bed earlier too.

My dad, he... I'm not quiet sure how to explain, but here it goes.

My dad is like a broken sleeper, he has a couple options.

1. he goes to bed early, wakes up in the middle of the night until about 2-5 o'clock in the morning then goes back to sleep and wakes up at ten.

2. He goes to bed late and wakes up late too

3. goes to bed late then wakes up early, but takes a nap from about 1 - 5 in the afternoon.

So that's all of us (well not all because there are 9 of us in the house... sometimes 12)

I'll see you in my next post!

Bye! >u<

Summer learning journey - Activity 2&3 Week 2 Day 2

Hello Bloggers!

Merry Christmas everybody!

I hope you are having a great Christmas holiday, but guess what!

My Summer learning journey still continues!

Today I have done Activity 2 and 3,

Enjoy!

Activity 2

For this activity you are asked to think of someone who is very tough and strong. They can be someone who you know personally or they can be a character that you have read about in a book, seen in a movie, or on a television show.

On your blog, tell us about this person. Who are they? Why are they, in your opinion, so strong and tough?

I have chosen

Mika

Mika is a friend of mine who is a year older, she is a very strong person, mentally and physically. She is a wonderful kind person, with a strong heart and for determination. I think that Mika is very strong because even when she's hurt she gets back up again, and even with words, she stands tall and proud. She is also physically very tough too, and sometimes can do some things that can hurt us without realising, although she makes sure she is sorry and makes sure we are ok. She is very strong in her learning as well in art, she is spectacular!

So I think that Mika is the one who is so Strong and tough. Someone that I look up to sometimes.

Enjoying Pet Day (continued)

Hello bloggers!

I am back at school on a Monday morning, and it seems like it's like a misty rain.

Anyway, enough with the weather.

Last week on Friday we had Pet Day (you may know from my last post)

In the afternoon we proceeded to have a look at our pet rocks and soft toys to see if you got a place for anything. I got a place for my sand saucer, I came second!

Have you had your pet day yet? or have you had it already? if yes then I would love to know about it!

Here is a photo book I made on the site Biteable!

Enjoy!
