  2. Hey there Summer!
    My name is Hasiba and I am from the Summer Learning Journey team.
    You have shared some awesome facts! Last weekend I took my little sister to the sky tower! She was super scared at first, but the view is wonderful! Have you ever been to up the sky tower? Many people have a fear of heights! Do you have any fears?

    One of my ultimate favourite facts about NZ is how Aotearoa means the land of the long white cloud! It makes me feel all fluffy and excited. Such a beautiful and mystical name.

    Keep up the amazing blogging.

    Well done for starting the Summer Learning Journey. I enjoyed reading your three facts. I love the Māori name for our country. Aotearoa sounds lovely when you say it out loud.

    I look forward to seeing more posts from you.
