  1. Kia Ora Milika, I hope you are having a good day!

    My name is Eliza and I’m working as a blog commenter on the Summer Learning Journey this summer. Have you done the Summer Learning Journey before? I’m looking forward to reading your posts and the other bloggers' posts from the Ako Hiko cluster, over the next few weeks! If you want to know more about me, you can check out my blog.

    First of all, thank you so much for sharing your pepeha! It’s a really special thing to read to get to know someone and their background a little better. I like how unique yours is - you have gone into depth about where you and your family are from - that's really cool! I also like the design you’ve done - the yellow title looks great on top of the purple background.

    If you were to do your pepeha again, it might be good to do it in English as well as Maori, so if your blog viewers can only understand Englishi, they can still read your pepeha and get to know you a little better.

    I did my pepeha a few months ago and I enjoyed doing it as It made me think about my family, my home, and my background, although I am still trying to learn it off by heart! Here it is:

    Ko Mount Iron te maunga
    (Mount Iron is my mountain)
    Ko Cheltenham te awa
    (Cheltenham is my river/water)
    Nō Tāmaki Makaurau ahau
    (Auckland is my town/city/country)
    Ko Eliza tōku ingoa
    (Eliza is my first name)

    I hope that you will keep blogging with us over the summer. Keep working on the teaser week activities and on the 16th of December you can start the Week 1 activities.

    Thanks for your awesome post, have a great rest of your day!

    Eliza :)
