  1. Hey there Lucy, my name is Billy and I am from the Summer Learning Journey programme. It's awesome to see you've completed another set of activities. Well done!

    I like the way you've arranged the first activity using a table. It is so visual and easy to read. Have you ever used the Google Translate tool before?

    You've also planned an interesting trip to Waitangi. I like how you've got a balance of activities, checking out some of the history, culture as well as a tour along the Waitangi river.

    Have you ever been to Waitangi before? What's your favourite place in New Zealand?

    It has also been wonderful reading the four questions you have written to ask Bill Kini during an interview. I particularly like the first question, which asks about his training regime. It would certainly be interesting to hear about how he managed to train for two sports at once. He would have had such a hectic schedule. I hope he didn't ever mistake the one sport for the other and punch a rugby player or tackle a boxer. That would be kind of funny.

    Great blog post Lucy! Keep it up, Billy :)
