7. #( Final ) Keep New Zealand Beautiful
Dawn breaks on Day #7 – the final day of your Great Kiwi Road Trip. You wake up early, ready to make the long trek back to Auckland. Along the way, Curious Kiwi stops at two beautiful places, Taupo and Rotorua, for you to get out and walk around.
Activity 1: While in Taupo, you go for a walk around the lake and you notice pieces of rubbish floating in the water. You also notice that there is rubbish on the footpath. As you know, it is really important to put rubbish in the bin and keep New Zealand clean and beautiful for generations to come.

With that in mind, it is time think about what you can do to keep New Zealand beautiful. Use your imagination and come up with three things that you could do to make your neighbourhood more beautiful. Post your list on your blog ☺
- Put some flowers on the sidewalk.
- Mow the grass that is on the sidewalk
- Using compliments
Activity 2: After you have finished up in Taupo, it is time to hop back in the car and head for Rotorua – a town where will have the chance for some much needed rest and relaxation. In fact, you will visit the Tarawera Bush Pool – a geothermal hot pool that is located in the middle of a forest. The warm water in the pool comes from underneath the ground. After a few hours in the pool you feel really relaxed.
On your blog, post a picture of yourself doing something relaxing. I find reading really relaxing. Here is a picture of me reading one of my favourite books!
After a long soak in the natural hot pools, it is time to get back home. Your family and friends can’t wait to see you and they can’t wait to hear all about your adventures. Take a moment to think about what you have seen and done over the past week.
As you can see, I'm reading a book called “Ultimate Survival Guide For Kids”. I'm reading this book because i'm bored and reading books Keep me interested. I got this book from the Glen Innes Library. I think you can get this book in any Library. But if you get this book, Trust me, it will save your life one day. Here are some pictures from the book that i am reading. ( Sorry if you can’t see it )
Bonus Activity: On your blog, post a video or write a description about your week. What have you learned? What did you like about the trip? What didn’t you like? Was there anything that surprised you?
To earn full points for this activity, you must talk about what you learned, what you liked and what you about your great kiwi road trip.
I learned a lot travelling around New Zealand and visiting other places like The land and sea, Cook Strait, Dargaville and much more. What i did not like about the journey, is getting lost in the forest crying everywhere. Luckily a wolf came and told me where was my group. Here are my three best things that i did and found.
- Finding a Great spotted kiwi. I liked the finding the kiwi and writing about the Great spotted kiwi. The great spotted kiwi and other kiwis are endangered just like the Rhinoceros and the Polar Bears.
2. Watching the Auckland Tour guide. The Auckland tour guide is super useful especially for those who came to visit Auckland. People can learn where all the places and the history of Auckland by just watching this video. You can watch the video by clicking here.
3. Lastly, interviewing with Laura Dekker. It's not that we are interviewing a famous young woman, it's that she went around the world with her bout. Isn't that amazing. And we got to interview our family members which is cool.
Bonus Activity: 12 points
Well, New Zealand truly is a stunning country, isn’t it? I think that we are so lucky to call it home! Let’s make sure that we do everything we can to keep the country safe and clean for future generations…
#Keep New Zealand beautiful!

ReplyDeleteKia ora Siosaia,
ReplyDeleteI am thrilled that you have learned new things through participating in the Winter Learning Journey programme. We loved reading your posts and blogging with you! I particularly loved this post as I learned how to stay safe (thanks for the 'Survival Guide' tips!), and I learned three new ways to keep New Zealand beautiful. I, too, believe that you can keep a place beautiful by protecting and preserving it and by treating the people living in it with respect. I think that it's great that you identified the importance of 'Using Compliments' in your post for Activity #1 (Day 7).
Keep up the great work when you get back to school tomorrow. I hope that you have a great start to Term 3. I'll see you when I come into Glenbrae to hand out the certificates and prizes for the Winter Learning Journey programme!
Cheers,
Rachel
