Top 3 fun facts
1. 30% of the country is forest - This means our country has a healthy population. It also explains why some people say New Zealand is one of the best because they love the fresh air and food.
2. To become a New Zealand citizen, you must swear an oath of loyalty to Queen Elizabeth - It shows that our country is loyalty to God and to our Queen. It also shows the respect we have for the law.
3. The most popular films in the country include ‘Once were Warriors’, ‘The Whale Rider’, ‘The Piano’ and the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy - This shows our country has what it takes to have our own "HOLLYWOOD" and shows more of our beautiful Scenery.

ReplyDeleteMy name is Mikey. I'm a member of the Summer Learning Journey team, along with Izzy, Sophie, Patricia and Lee. It looks like you've been busy these holidays, completing lots of activities - it's wonderful to see. :)
You've chosen some great little facts about New Zealand (NZ). Isn't it wonderful that so much of our country is still beautiful, green forest? That's one of my favourite things about NZ - you don't have to go far to be out of the city and in amongst nature.
It's pretty cool that so many movies have been filmed here. It does wonders for our tourism industry! I used to live in Wellington, right next to Mount Victoria where some of the Lord of the Rings scenes were filmed - people would come from all over the world just to see it. Have you seen the Lord of the Rings films? They showcase New Zealand's natural environment beautifully.
I look forward to reading more posts from you soon Opeti. Until then, happy blogging! :)
