The Olympics

This term we will be following the Olympics. Each room is representing a different country during our Olympic Sports Day in Week 3. Tuatara Rock is Denmark.
Today we learnt about the Olympic Rings representing the 5 different continents. We learnt that Denmark is part of Europe and New Zealand is part of Australasia.

This is a map of Europe...

and this is a close up of Denmark.

The Flag of Denmark is red with a white cross.

Denmark has an amazing bridge and tunnel that links it to Sweden.
