What makes a Kiwi?

New Zealand is a fantastic country.  New Zealanders are also known as Kiwis.  But what makes a kiwi?

Food is one of the that makes Kiwis, Kiwis.  They are known for pavalova, Fish & Chips and Watties tomato sauce. They are also known for oysters, jaffas and loads more. People would say these things because of their fantastic love for them!

Another thing that makes a Kiwi is what Kiwis wear.  It is normally like a cold fridge in N.Z. so they wear swandris to keep them warm and red band gumboots for out on the muddy farm.  If there is some warm weather they are known to pop on there jandals (which are a bit like sandals).  Jandals are known as flip-flops in some other countries.

Values take a giant part in a Kiwi's nature.  They have a 'can do' spirit so they are normally always persisting.  They also greatly value their family and friends, and the environment.

New Zealanders also love corrugated iron, a deck, rugby, and loads more.  Their special holidays are ANZAC Day, Labour Day and they have a summer Christmas.  Their main icons are the kiwi and the fern.  Their main heroes are the All Blacks.  Go the All Blacks!!!                                                                                                                      

In conclusion, I think New Zealand is a great country. I hope this helps you know what makes a Kiwi.
