Oceania 

Kia ora ko Zacchaeus or Kaio taku ingoa today we have been studies about oceania  

1 fact about oceania and polynesia 

Did you know that polynesia was master navigation without modern instruments deliberately the sailed and settled a vast oceanic area spanning over 10 million square miles away. 

In Nauru they are the smallest island in the whole pacific but they have a lots of history and they always eat coconut fish and drinking ice coffee i thought they drink coco or something and their place is so hot and  maybe it might be a bit cold over there and they have houses but their colours is white they dance every night they a legend it about the spider and the two snail i will tell you on the other part and that what i know about Nauru.

2 facts about Nauru 

2. Did you know that Nauru is the third smallest country and the smallest nation because their island is only 21 square kilometers and they no capital city did you know that because their town is only small and there some a lots of people and not that many because their country is small just like samoan but it has two islands so Nauru is the third smallest country in the whole pacific. 

1. Did you know that Nauru has no lakes and no rivers because Nauru has only beaches Nauru has no rivers because the land is dry because it is so hot over there. I don’t know what temperature but it is hot over there so that is why there are no rivers or lakes over there.

A legend of Nauru 

In Nauru they have a story called Aerop Enap its about the spider and the two snails that they were inside of a mussel shell the big spider is friendly and it want to get out of here he’s name is Aerop Enap there were two snails there the big one and a small one the big snail is the god of the sun and the small is the god of the moon when the mussel shell is shut the worm is breaking up the shell and it life the whole body up and the mussel shell broke up it like the story Ranginui and Papatuanuku when Tane broke them up Ranginui the mother of the rain  and Papatuanuku is the god of land. 

A traditional dish

The traditional and national dish of Nauru is Coconut fish, a dish made from white fish, such as snapper or mahi-mahi, coated in grated coconut and often served with lime slices. It is prepared by marinating the fish in lime juice, then dipping it in flour and egg, and finally rolling it in grated coconut before frying it to a golden brown. It sounds delicious.

I thought Huia and River were dead but they were still alive. Huia father is Tau. River is Tau nephew Tau died because the boat exploded. At least Huia and River survived the exploded from the boat. My favourie is Huia and River because they are good at stuff like River is good at doing the hinaki and helping stuff with Huia with some other stuff in the forest and Huia is good at some stuff  like doing the toetoe and garbing some food for their survival and also they always look after each other and that my favourite characters in the cuz story. Their is some high lights in the story I remember that Huia and River were stuck in the forest and they were angry and crying and frustrated because Huia father and River nephew die from the exploded and the flood destroyed their shelter and their food that they collect from the forest Huia fall into the water and can’t get out River trying to save her but he didn’t save but Huia told River to go back to the blonder and river save her. And after that Huia and River found a cabin they were so happy and got some food,water after that they had a sleep then they starting walking back to their home they saw DOC hunt it in the end of the road but they don’t care they just keep moving and they hear a bark from a dog they follow a sound of a dog barking they found a old man his name is Steve. Steve was talking to them like who they are but he was shocked that he found the missing teenager that survived from the exploded from the boat Steve told Huia and River to them a ride to take them home.I learnt from this story is try and survival from the nature and looking after each other in the forest.

Kia ora from Zacchaeus Tua.
