Hi room11,
Yesterday Granny and I got on the plane to London at 21:30 from Valencia (a city in Spain.) But didn't land until 23:35 and we had to get the bags of the plane as well as having 40 minute drive ahead of us. So we got back to Granny's house at 1:20 in the morning.
However Granny and I had so much fun in Spain and sometimes it's great just to relax and chill out. In Spain we were swimming and swimming and swimming and we did a little bit of shopping as well.
I have some great new clothes and love all of the British shops.
Mum, Dad and Tayla have all told me how bad and rainy the weather is I hope that it gets a little better. Great little movie by the way.

Rapare 17 Pipiri
This morning, for many, started very early. This morning we celebrated MATARIKI. Matariki celebrates the Maori new year. The Greytown School kapa haka welcomed the Year 8's students and new staff. Mr Andrews lit a bon fire. The new Greytown staff and some year 8 students planted a tree each. Matariki is a good time of the year for planting. We know that it is Matariki when we can see the 7 stars of matariki (the 7 sisters) in the night sky.
