Top 3 Fun Facts about New Zealand

1. Did you know that New Zealand and Denmark are the only two countries in the world that have two national anthems?

New Zealand has God Save The Queen and God Defend New Zealand. If you count the Maori version of God Defend New Zealand, E Ihowa, then we have three.

At Pt England School we sing E Ihowa and God Defend New Zealand at every Friday assembly.

2. Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand even though Auckland is the biggest city in the country.

3. In 1893, New Zealand was the first country to let women vote. I think that is pretty cool. Kate Sheppard is the lady who helped this happen. She is on our New Zealand $10 note.

Summer Learning Journey 2018/2019

Hi everyone

Welcome to my blog if it's your first time and welcome back to everyone coming back.

These Christmas holidays I will be doing the Summer Learning Journey 2018/2019.  

At first I really didn't want to do it, but my parents think it will help me with my learning for next year in intermediate.  My sister and I have had a quick look through some of the activities and some of them look like fun.  So it might not be that bad.

Let's start this summer learning journey together

Goodbye Fan's!!!
