King And Country

For the past few days I've been reading a book called "King and Country"
The story starts at 16th August 1914. A Maori village where people are arguing to go or not to help fight with the British. This man called Tipu wants to go to war with his older brother Rongo. His family didn't want Rongo and Tipu to go to war. Unfortunately Tipu was to young to go but Rongo fortunately made it in. Later Tipu lied about his age and he fought along side with his brother Rango.

Using Google Maps



Today I used google maps to find places all over the world!
Here is a satellite image of my school! -Vardon School-
Some interesting places I found were... Obama's house, the Leaning tower of Pisa and the Eiffel tower.
