  1. Kia Ora Alexandra, this is Shannon from the Summer Learning Journey.

    Brilliant job on your Pepeha! Its very well written and I particularly like your attention to detail.

    Quick tip: Your text appears to run off the screen to the right. Perhaps you could re-size the text box to make it slightly smaller to fix this.

    I see you mentioned Taranaki. I hear the skiing there is tremendous. I haven’t myself been skiing but I have used a boogie board as a toboggan and slid down snowy hills with my family which was a lot of fun. I also got to make snow-angels and snowmen. Have you ever been to the snow? If so what did you do in it?

    Hei konā mai,

    1. hi Shannon thank you for the tip I will fix it asap.
      I haven't been skiing in taranaki but we have a special connection with the maunga my dad proposed to my mum on the maunga it is now a family Tonga. I have been in the snow in america its so fluffy and clear I love it! we even built an igloo! thats such a good idea to use a boogie board as a toboggan how fun.
      thank you for your suggestions, ake ake kia kaha, Alex

    2. Hi again Alex,

      That’s such a cool connection to your maunga! Taranaki must be so important to your family.

      Wow, you’ve been to America. What’s it like? Where did you go specifically?

      I’ve seen snow in Dunedin but there wasn’t quite enough to build an igloo. That must have been incredible to make, how long did it take you? I did have a really fun snowball fight with my brother in Dunedin’s winter though. I recently learned that snow isn’t actually white, it is translucent. The reason we see the snow falling as white is because white wavelengths of light reflect off all the edges of the snowflake whilst other coloured wavelengths are absorbed. Isn’t that cool!

      Hei konā mai,
      Shannon
