About Me

Hi, My name is Sam and I am a Year 5 student at Mt Carmel School. I wanted to participate in the Summer Blogging as I was with my mum when Rachel came to talk to her class. I asked my mum if I can join. Finally she agrees and I am very keen to journey through with so many children around New Zealand.

  1. Hey Sam,

    This is Jade C from the Summer Learning Journey blogging team. I will also be reading and commenting on your blog along with many other bloggers :)

    First of all, this is an amazing presentation of comparing and contrasting features between wharepuni and normal house. I like how you pointed out the fact that the wharepuni has a big living area with no separate rooms! Imagine that you have to live and sleep with numerous of people in one big space, I prefer having my own room so I can be left alone and have my own space. I also like how you recognised the thatched roof and iron roof and the special decoration of wharepuni.

    Would you say that both houses would be suitable to live in? Which house would to prefer to live in? Would you be able to live in the wharepuni with your whole family? I hope to hear back from you!

    All the best,
    Jade C.
