  1. Hi Iverson, this is Mrs Collins from Manaiakalani and I'll be commenting on blogs over term break. Well done on posting and participating in the SLJ this year. I really like the narrative you shared about a changemaker... sometimes being a changemaker can be fun too, I'm glad you enjoyed the task! What would you change? Keep blogging, and commenting on others, to increase your chance of winning one of the awesome prizes and to keep up your learning over the school break!

  2. Good Evening Iverson,

    It's me Samuel, Mrs. Tui's son as you probably already know. I really enjoyed reading your blog on this amazing and inspiring woman. I think you did a great job summarising the amazing accomplishment she made at such a young a young age. She is truly an inspiration to people of all ages, but especially the children of this modern era that dreams can be accomplished with determination and courage.

    This is good writing, but maybe you could add images just to add interesting accentuation to the amazing explanation you wrote. Apart from that, well done, Iverson, amazing blog post.

    Kind Regards,
    Samuel
