I Spent time alone finishing reading books, I felt happy after finishing 16 books in 3 weeks, I spent time reading books at home and at school during break, Some chapters are short that's why I finish them quickly.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.
