    Write a letter to this student, including the following:

    1. what YOU think is awesome about New Zealand

    2. what makes New Zealand special?

    3. where might the student want to visit, should they travel to New Zealand on holiday in the future? You could include your own experiences of visiting places around NZ. You should aim to write about a variety of experiences:

      1. cultural events

      2. significant places (historical, cultural, sporting…etc)

      3. activities
