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.

Top three facts I know about New Zealand

Top three facts I know about New Zealand is:
1. New Zealanders are called kiwis and a kiwi is not a fruit in New Zealand. It's actually a native bird.
2. 30% of New Zealand is actually filled with forest.
3. New Zealand is one of the most unpopulated countries in the world with only 4 million population.

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

Waka adventures

Dear _____,
I'm sending this letter to you from New Zealand!!! That's right we named the country New Zealand. My travels with two other people was the scariest but most exciting I've ever done. I ran out of food and had a panic attack but I caught some fish and ate it. I'm standing on the shores of New Zealand ( NZ ) and wishing I had more company. Can you please round up the Maori people and send them all over here this instant. I am here with two other fearless warriors. We arrived at a beach and we're deciding we want to call it Waitangi. We traveled on a waka and it took about five days.
I hope you guys come over and start to develop a New Zealand with us.
Sincerely Bella.
