  1. Hi there!

    My name is Matilda and I am a blog commenter for the Summer Learning Journey this year! I’ve noticed that you haven’t done any of the activities yet. Our finish date is the 24th of January but there is still time to give it a go and start gaining some points!

    This is such an incredible post! You seem like you care a lot about our environment! Do you have a compost at your house? I really want to start one! Now that you have taught me all this information I definitely will start one! :)

    The Summer Learning Journey has heaps of activities to choose from! Here is the link. Have a look through and find some activities you like the looks of. I’m looking forward to seeing which ones you choose! (There are quite a few activities about being environmentally friendly, and climate change. I have a feeling you would be very good a these ones!)
