Summer Learning Journey #2 - My Hometown

Today's activity for the Summer Learning Journey is all about our hometowns. My hometown is less of a town and more of city (all though not by much). I live in Christchurch in the south island of New Zealand.


Christchurch is, in reality a very small city. It seems like almost every time you go out somewhere your going to bump into someone you know. Because of its size there isn't too much to do for teenagers. Every single kid who has grown up in christchurch has been to Orana Park, Willow Bank, the air force museum and the city museum almost so much that they can pretty much walk around them blindfolded. 

Christchurch is also quite flat, meaning that when you meet someone one of the fundamental questions that you will get asked (after "what's your name" and "how old are you") is; "What school do you/did you go to?" It's a pretty common question and one that it pretty much an automatic for most people. 

Most people out of Christchurch know it for its infamous earthquakes. That is something that is %100 true. We did have some pretty horrific earthquakes (nothing on Japan but it was for us). 

But I digress, I do like my city, aside from the earthquakes and "having nothing to do aside from the mall". It's hot in the summer and cold and wet in the winter. I like going out to the river with our Dog and having the beach only a half and hour drive away. It's nice to be able to sit at home and be creative because there is almost literally nothing else to do.  But of course, as with anything. If you had asked me what my thoughts on my city were before I visited London i'm sure the answer would have been much different and probably much more positive.
