One of the most common plants found in New Zealand forests is the fern. It is a special, iconic symbol of New Zealand. You will find pictures of ferns on the jerseys of many famous sporting teams in New Zealand, including the New Zealand All Blacks.
Did
you know that many of these teams also have the word ‘fern’ in their name? Use your best researching skills to find three New Zealand sporting teams who use the word ‘fern’ in their title.
On your blog list three sports teams that have the word ‘fern’ in their title. Beside each team’s name, post a picture of their uniform. Then, at the bottom of your blog post tell us which of the three uniforms you like best and why.
1) The Silver FERNS - Womens Netball
2) The Tall FERNS - Womens Basketball
3) The Black FERNS - Womens Rugby
The three teams I have chosen are the ones above. All three uniforms are really similar, by the colour of the uniforms and also the pattern as you may know why.....Becuase all 3 teams represent one country NEW ZEALAND!! To be very honest my favourite uniform has to be the Silver ferns (netball) Why? because it looks very simple and comfortable. Also love the meanings of the uniform such as the colour of the uniform. It is a black, white and silver uniform, with a silver Fern and also some silver Maori korus. The korus represent Maori, the silver represents their team and the Fern represents New Zealand!

Kia ora & Namaste Rowana,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you as I also love the Silver Fern uniform because of the fern in front, I like the size of it, the subtle colour and how it blends with the koru as it adds such an original touch. For the future try to add the name of the teams write next or just below the picture so you readers would know which one is which.
Thanks for another solid post!
Keep up with your great work!
Kia kaha,
Patricia
