Activity 1: Scaling New Heights

Hi Sir Edmund Hilary my name is Tanner. How are you? Would you like a drink before we start?

I have some questions I would like to ask you about your life and climbing mountains.

1. Was it cold when you climbed Mt Everest?

2. Where did you sleep on the mountain? Were there caves to sleep in?

3. Was it fun climbing these mountains? Did you have any friends with you?

4. Did you have a jacket when you were climbing Mt Everest?

5. What did you eat for breakfast, morning tea, lunch and dinner?

6. Do you have any kids?

7. When is your birthday?

8. Where do you live now? Do you have a big house?

Thank you for letting me interview you.

  1. Kia ora Tanner! My name is AJ and I go to Christ The King school in Auckland. I'm also currently taking part in the summer learning journey. I really liked how you started your beginning with a introduction which made it really interesting and got me excited to read the rest! I thought it was also really cool how you turned this into a little conversation with 'Sir Edmund Hillary'! What's your favourite subject in school? Keep up the great work!

    1. Kia ora Aj!

      It is so nice to hear from you, all the way from Christ The King School in Auckland! I think it is awesome that you have taken the time to comment such a beautiful, thoughtful and kind comment, I am so sure Tanner will appreciate this. You are being a responsible online user and your leaving such a positive cyber footprint.
      What has been your favourite Summer Learning Journey activity? I really love that you are supporting other schools that aren't in your cluster, I hope Tanner and others will check out your blog! I know I definitely will!

      Keep up the awesome work Aj!

  2. Hey Tanner!

    You have gone above and beyond by doing 8 questions! I really appreciate that and think you are really taking charge of your learning.
    I agree with Aj, I really like how you have made it like you are interviewing the person. It does keep it interesting and keeps the audience really excited!
    Well done on creating some thoughtful questions that are really relevant. Did you know Sir Edmund Hillary is New Zealand’s most accomplished explorer as he was the first man to climb Mount Everest in 1953. I have attached a link so you can find out some more information about Sir Edmund Hillary: http://www.siredmundhillary.com/banknote.htm
