Show 1240 Monday 12 July
Hi, I’m Sarah, welcome to The Daily English Show.
Congratulations to Spain who just won the World Cup … as predicted by
85.7% of the people who answered the poll on thedailyenglishshow.com
People in Spain must be pretty happy right now, including Acula1900.
In Auckland right now there’s a festival going on called the Matariki Festival. It’s celebrating the Māori New Year. I’ve been to several events which are part of this festival and on Saturday I went to a kite day which was at a place called Takaparawha Regional Park.
It was on the top of a hill and it was a beautiful sunny day. The sun has finally decided to return after a couple of months of pretty much continuous rain – so we had this amazing view of Auckland. So if you get the chance … if you’re ever in Auckland … it’s definitely a place I recommend visiting.
