Kia ora Bella,
It’s Charlotte here, a Summer Learning Journey Blog Commenter. Well done on giving the Project Tiger Kick Start activity a go, you have done an awesome job!
Well done on including lots of facts about the Tiger into your blog post! The fact I found most interesting was that they are great swimmers – I never knew this about Tigers! What was the most interesting fact you found out during your research?
The last time I saw a Tiger was when I visited the zoo recently! Have you been to a zoo before? What is your favourite animal that can be found at the zoo? I enjoy seeing the elephants!

I found swimming surprising too.
My favourite animal I’ve seen at a zoo was Red Pandas.
