I live in Greymouth on the west coast of the south island of New Zealand.

We have a river running through Greymouth which
splits it into two parts Greymouth and Cobden.
The river is called the Grey River. In Greymouth
there are many fun activities you can do.
We have a surf shop in town where you can
hire your own surfboard and take it out at Cobden beach.
We have lots of walks spread out across the west coast.
We also have good fishing opportunities and our river is
well known for the amount of whitebait caught in it each year.
Greymouth has a big specially designed skate park.
We have two high schools and lots of primary schools
spread around the west coast.

The Legend Of New Zealand

The Legend Of New Zealand

Top three fun facts about New Zealand.

Fact number one. New Zealand is the only country in the world where you will find the flightless bird the Kiwi.

Fact number two. New Zealand was the first country to have its three top positions of power held simultaneously by women, Prime Minister Helen Clark, Governor General Dame Silvia Cartwright and the Chief Justice Sian Elias.

Fact number three. The west coast of new Zealand is very well known for its pounamu. Pounamu can only be found in new Zealand and is very valuable due to its rarity and its smooth dark green skin.
