Discovering Aotearoa
Hi bloggers around the world🌎👈, today I am going to talk about the first person that discovered Aotearoa. Some people believe that Kupe was the first person to discover Aotearoa in 1300. Kupe was from New Zealand but his homeland was Hawaiki. He came to New Zealand from Hawaiki by using the stars, sun, and ocean swells. That was just a quick fact about Kupe, let me tell you some more facts about Kupe.
1. Kupe was born at Kawhai
2. Kupe discovered Aotearoa in 1300
3. Kupes name in Polynesian mean; The name of a heroic explorer.
Does were some facts about Kupe. Did you know them? I didn't! Our task was to talk about our culture. We have to tell detail about our culture like, where does my family come from, what is special to me and my family, and what languages do me and my family speak. So this is my culture. Me and my family are originally form Venezuela, I was born in Costa Rica. Something special and important to me and my family is to be together in Christmas and the New year. Our language is Spanish. Question Time! If you could have been the first person to discover a country, what country would that be?
Thank you for watching
Bye Bye Bye👋👧

ReplyDeleteMōrena Pao, I hope you are having a fantastic morning so far!
Thank you for doing week one, day one, activity two! It was really cool to read where your family is from and to hear that you enjoy spending time with them at Christmas and New Years. I really want to visit Venezuela! Have you ever lived there or did your family move to NZ before you were born?
I am Pākehā but my dad’s family comes from England and my Mum’s family comes from Scotland and Canada, which is pretty cool because it means I can go and live in all of these countries if I want to! My family is quite small and live in many different places, but I have a lot of friends and family friends who are like family to me. The most important thing about my family is that we are really open and honest and have great communication, my parents are also really loving towards me :)
I only speak English but I would love to learn Te Reo Maori and Spanish.
If I could have discovered any country, it would have to be the Philippines because the nature there is so beautiful and I would’ve loved to see it before there were lots of other tourists there. How about you?
Thanks for posting! Have a great Tuesday.
Eliza :)
