    Kia Ora William!
    Welcome to the Summer Learning Journey for the 2018 summer. My Name is Hasiba, I am from Summer Learning Journey team.

    This is a great start, thank you for sharing such interesting facts. One of my favourite facts of all time is your bonus fact! I love how Gisborne, New Zealand is the first city to see the sunrise. We are so lucky to live in such a wonderful country.

    I am also pleased we have no snakes!
    I am excited to see what you post next
