My hometown Greymouth

Here in Greymouth, we have a pretty small town. Our weather goes back and forth and we have rain and shine. Our population is only about 9,700. Mawheranui is the Maori name for Greymouth. I think my town is really special because we have a smallish town and we have lots of activities and I'm happy to say Greymouth is where I live.

What it would be like to have eight siblings...

I wouldn't really like having eight siblings because we would always fight over things and we wouldn't get many presents. It would also be pretty great because I would always have company and would always have someone to help me do work. But then again if we ordered takeaway and only had enough money to buy one scoop of fish and chips you would probably only have four chips 'cause of you're big family. And also if your Mum and Dad say "What theme park do you want to go to" then you say Movie world but then all your siblings say Dreamworld then you have to go to Dreamworld. Also for one last fact is......... THE REMOTE!!!!! You would have to fight for your life and hurt other people. Then when you finally get the remote your Mum or Dad will say "No T.V." I mark my case. That is why I would hate having eight siblings.

How my house is different compared to a Wharepuni

Walt compare my house to a Wharepuni.

A Wharepuni is a place where Maoris seek shelter and sleep there.                                                                           

The same: They both have shelter, They both have doors and windows

Different: The roof goes right down to the ground, The design is completely different
