Sir Edmund Hillary (SLJ Week One)

Kia ora this week is the beginning for the SLJ. this week is week one we are learning about the people who changed the world through sport and exploration. This blog post I am going to learn more about Sir Edmund Hillary and why he wanted to climb the heights mountain. Sir Edmund Hillary was 33 when he climbed Mount Everest and was 81 when he died. Sir Edmund Hillary died on 22 April 2008 and was born on 11 January 2008. Sir Edmund Hillary liked to climb mountains he was a New Zealand mountaineer explorer and philanthropist. My favorite piece of information about Sir Edmund Hillary is he liked to climb mountains he didn't do it because he needed to get fit he did it because it was his passion.

  1. Kia ora Emma,

    How are your holidays going? Have you been up to anything exciting?

    I am so sorry that I seemed to have missed this post! I'm glad you enjoyed learning about Sir Edmund Hillary, he is a great changemaker, isn't he?

    I also think it's amazing that Sir Edmund Hillary climbed mountains because he enjoyed it, and not because he needed to. Have you ever climbed a big mountain or gone tramping? I've been on one tramp and I loved it! We walked most of the day then stayed at a hut, which was really fun.

    There's only a couple of days left of the Summer Learning Journey, but I hope we get to see more blogging from you!

    Have a great day, Emma :)

    Ngā mihi,
    Tayla
