Hi Anna,
ReplyDeleteYou have definitely chosen one of the most iconic landmarks in Australia. The Sydney Opera House has hosted many famous concerts and events over the years. It is mainly a music venue but you can also take a walking tour through the building with a guide. The guide will tell you all about the history of the building and he/she will tell you some interesting stories about the entertainers and musicians who have performed shows at the Opera House.
As far as I know the Opera House only hosts gigs and events. It isn't a regular house like you and I would live in - it's more of a concert hall, like Vector Arena.
If I had the chance I would definitely take a guided tour of the opera house. I would also love to visit El Castillo, Chichen Itza – a Mayan temple in Mexico and the desert in the United Arab Emirates because I have never been to either place. I am really curious to know what it is like to walk through acres of sand and visit temples built by a tribe of people who lived 4000+ years ago. I find it hard to imagine what the world was like 4000 years ago...
Great blog, Anna. I like the way that you answered our question and then posed a question of your own!
Cheers,
Rachel :)
Thanks Rachel,
DeleteI really like your opinion. Also I was just wondering when will Aronui comment on my blog? Not saying it in a mad or in a rush but I really want to now something interesting about him like how does it feel to be a son of a blogger. I would be glad if he answered my question.
Thank you Rachel for everything.

Hi Anna,
DeleteAronui is with his dad this week and then he'll be with me on Friday. He is SO excited to send you a comment and would love to answer any questions that you might have. Would you like to send him a question and I will show it to him on Friday night?
As an aside, Aronui was telling me the other day that he wants to be a blogger when he grows up. He has been watching me blog with the Summer Learning Journey and wants to join in!
Cheers,
Rachel
Hi Anna!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to pop back one more time before school starts and say "Hello!". It looks like you have been very busy and you should be very proud of all the work you have accomplished over the Summer Learning Journey. It looks like you really understand that what this has all been about it keeping your learning and literacy up during the holiday period, and we are so proud of you for owning that and doing your very best on every activity!
I want to wish you all the very best for this coming year at school. I know that your winning attitude towards learning and doing your best will help you face every challenge that comes your way with fire in your heart and focus in your eyes. It is so important to take control of your own learning and success and I think you already understand that, which is why you're going to grow up to be an amazing adult that your peers and the younger generations can look up to, and I really believe that.
Keep up the great work! Keep being yourself! And have a FANTASTIC YEAR!
Mark
Hi Anna,

Hi Anna,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on placing third equal in the Summer Learning Journey blogging programme this past holiday. You were a blogging star! I will look forward to seeing you on Friday when I come in to Pt England school to hand out the SLJ prizes and certificates.
