Peter-The Kia Ora lady.

  • We read about Dame Naida Glavish, a wahine toia who choice to greet callers with “Kia Ora” instead of “Hello.” Her one action led to a massive change in New Zealand’s cultural identity.
  • We think Dame Naida Glavish was an agent of change because she wanted to spread the maori language around new zealand because people was speaking only english.

Kia ora, my name is Peter. I am in year 7 at Panmure Bridge School. I am very excited to be in LS2 this year because of the new learning that I will be doing.

My favourite things to do are math and literacy. At home I like playing board games with my family. My goal for this amazing year is to improve in all subjects and to finish all of my uncompleted work.

I am very excited to be learning in LS2 with Mrs Fisi’iahi and Mrs Anderson.
