This term we are learning about the Summer Learning Journey. For this I have chosen to travel to South Africa to learn more! Each week we have a blogging task to complete - hopefully you will learn more about this country too.
Today we are learning quick facts! Most of the information is on this link.
The capital city of South Africa is... Pretoria.
The population of the capital city is... 2.125 million people (which is just less than half of the population of New Zealand! Wow!)
In January the weather is.... 20 degrees and it is mid-summer.
The capital city is located near the top of the country you can see where on this map! (look down the bottom)
In South Africa there are 11 offical languages! That is a lot! They are Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, Swazi, Tsonga, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu. Most people speak more than one language.
I think it would be awesome to be able to visit South Africa! I think I would have some trouble with the different language though!
Where would you like to travel?
