Hello from Vanuatu

The first 2 weeks we were in Vanuatu were really great because we were on holiday. We had lots of visitors and we did lots of cool stuff like off road buggies, zipline, swimming at the blue lagoon, walking up to the cascade falls and going to a fire dancing show.

The best thing I have done so far is to get my Padi Junior Open Water dive ticket so now I can go diving with my Dad. It took a lot of hard work especially reading and remembering all the things I needed to know for the exam.

The first day at school was good I met a whole lot of new friends like Travis, (comes from Christchurch) Steven, (from china) the twins Nathan and Josh, (from vanuatu) Daica (from Vanuatu) and Christian (from America). I am finding the work quite different and sometimes harder.

Living here is a lot different to staying on holiday. Our house is cool, we have a big garden and a swimming pool which we have been in a lot. It is really hot but we are getting used to it now.

The day we arrived Dad gave us coconuts from our garden

There are huge spiders here, lots of land crabs and we even saw a snake.

Here is the massive spider we found

Now all our visitors have left we are looking forward to settling into local life.
