Winter Learning Journey: Day 2 | Activity 1

For the first activity of day 2 for the Winter Learning Journey, I had to pretend I went to the three places, Rangitoto, Kareka Beach, and Tane Mahuta. I had to write down what my favourite places were (As if I really went there) and the reason why.

My most favourite place: My favourite place I pretended to visit was Rangitoto. The reason why was because I had then just found out that Rangitoto emerged from the sea 600 years ago, and is the youngest volcano!

My second most favourite place: My second most favourite place I pretended to visit was Tane Mahuta. The reason why was because it is the place of the oldest kauri tree.

My third most favourite place: My third most favourite place I pretended to visit was Kareka Beach. The reason why was because filmmakers like Jane Champion, Barry Barclay and Niki Caro have set major films there.

    I didn't know that Karekare beach is a place that was used for filming. Do you know if any of the films that were filmed there became really popular? Keep up the fabulous work.

  2. Hi Jack. I like how you have listed in order the places you visited from best to worst. I also like how you have added a description of each place. I think you have done a great job. Keep on working hard.

  3. Hi Jack
    I like how you said that Rangitoto emerged from the sea. Do you think that animals got a fright when it popped up?
    Great work

  4. Hello Jack, I also chose Rangitoto as my favourite place out of the three. Did you know that Rangitoto is the biggest volcano in Auckland?
