Room 18's Holiday Spots

View Room 18's Holiday Spots in a full screen map

Summer is...

Summer is…
Scuba diving in the shimmering water
Swimming in the sparkling sea
Kayaking on the glistening ocean
Playing hide and seek between the pohutukawa trees
Seagulls swooping and devouring food hungrily
Delicious family picnics at the seaside
Diving off the wharf


by Karthiga, Wilmer, Martin, Zoe and Emma

Summer is...

Summer is…
Playing in the sand
Swimming in the ocean
Bouncing beach balls
Flowers blooming
Playing sports
Hot summertime


by Abby, Lily, Jake, Dylan and Kyle

Summer is...

Summer is…
Boogie boarding in the shallow waves
Hot blinding sun
Birds hatching in their nests
Collecting shellfish for dinner
Surfing in the splashing waves


by BaiLin, Bonnie, Skylar, Alex and Mrs Morris

Summer is

Summer is…
Dancing dolphins playing in the cool water
Eating ice-cream which drips down your chin
Having a cool-off in the pool
Playing in the soft sparkly sand
Fishing on the gentle seas
Flowers blooming in summertime

by Samantha, Shyla, Angie, Jerry and Reagan


Summer is... by Emily, Quinn, Winnie, Matthew and Lucy

Summer is…
Fishing on a boat
Building sandcastles
Splashing in the blue water
Surfing at the beach
Diving into the sea
Dolphins playing in the ocean
Collecting oysters in their shells
Biscuitting at the back of a boat
Playing in the sunshine with your friends

Boogie boarding on the waves
