2. Another interesting fact is that the Auckland City Sky Tower is the tallest freestanding structure in the Southern Hemisphere at 328 meters high. I found this interesting because whenever my family and I drive through Auckland we play a game of who can spot the sky tower first because it is so tall that you can see it from a very long distance.
3. New Zealand is one of the world’s smallest countries with over 4 million people. Where as America has over 325.7 million. That's pretty amazing because the difference between the population is 321.7 million. WOW I can't even imagine how there city's look compared to Auckland.
Kia ora Jack,
ReplyDeleteWell done on completing your first activity for the Summer Learning Journey! I really enjoyed reading your fun facts and was very impressed with the quality of your writing, ka pai.
The sky tower game you play with your family sounds like fun, I may have to try it next time I go to Auckland. Well done on comparing NZ to America and working out the difference, I never realised that the USA had that many people, isn't that such an enormous number of people?
I like the photo you included, did you know that is in Wellington? During the school year I live in Wellington and study at Victoria University of Wellington. It's a beautiful city but can get very windy! That's how it has picked up the nickname "Windy Welly". Have you had the chance to visit NZ's capital before?
I'm looking forward to seeing more blog posts from you soon Jack!
Have a Merry Christmas with your whanau.
Talk to you soon, Georgia.
Thank you Georgia
