Kia Ora Whanau!!
Kia Ora koutou!
Ko Matua Nathan tenei! How are you all? Oh how I have missed you all so so much!! How is the term going?
I have been in London now for just over a month! It doesn't seem like it has been that long, its gone so fast!! I have seen so much since I have been here, all the normal things like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park and so much more. I have a new job teaching at a Hindu school called Swaminaryan School, it is a great school and the staff and children are all really friendly. I am living in West London at the moment in a really nice place.
We recently had a whole week and a half of 28 degrees plus every day so we plenty of time down at the park.
I know you have holidays coming up so I hope you all enjoy them heaps and also your last term. I will touch base again soon.
Kia Tau te Mauri Koutou!!
Mauri Ora!!!
Na Matua Nathan
P.S - look who I ran into in the picture!!!!
