This week we opened Zane's Flat Stanley package. Zane sent his Flat Stanley to visit his Auntie in Mount Maunganui.
This is what we learnt about Flat Stanley's trip:
1. Hot Pools are special because they are salt water from the sea that has been sucked into the earth, heated, and bubbled back up to the surface.
2. Tramping up the mount is great exercise.
3. Mount Maunganui is famous for its surf beach. There are lots of sand dunes at the beach and great big clumps of seaweed!
Some other things we learnt about New Zealand are:
1. New Zealand is made up of two islands called the North island and the South island. We live in Wellington city which is on the bottom tip of the North Island.
2. Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand and that means that the government buildings are here.
3. John Key is the Prime Minister of New Zealand and he works at the Beehive.
We loved looking closely at the Maps!
We Can't wait to learn all about Australia next week!
