    Hi Max
    Wow you have been busy in your holidays. So proud of you.Yes we all need to make sure that we learn about these dolphins and other sea creatures so that we can tell people what they need to do to make sure that they do not all die.
    Keep blogging you are nearly at the end of the Summer learning Journey.

    Kia ora Max,

    Well done on your awesome mahi this summer, the Kaikohekohe commenting team have really enjoyed reading your blog posts and hope you are very proud of the effort you put in to each activity. I know that participating in this programme will have helped to ensure you are prepared and excited to return to school and ready to learn.

    I hope you have had a fabulous break! I'm looking forward to visiting Ohaeawai School in a few weeks to celebrate the hard work you have all put in this summer.

    Nga mihi,
    Georgia.
