5 questions I would like to ask Sir Edmund Hillary

                                    5 questions I would like to ask Sir Edmund Hillary


  1. How old were you when you started climbing?
  2. What school did you go to when you were a kid?
  3. Did you play sport when you were a kid? If so what sport?
  4. What did it feel like to be the first person to climb Mt Everest?
  5. Why did you start to climb mountains?

  1. Dear Alicia,
    I have always been fasinated by Sir Edmund Hilary. I have read a book about him a few times. It's an adult book called "Nothing Venture, Nothing Win." If you think about the title it's a bit like what you are doing writing three times a day on your blog. Maybe you will be a winner. If you don't try then you are not in with a chance. See nothing venture, nothing win.

  2. Hi Alicia

    You have come up with some great questions to as Sir Edmund Hillary. He really is a great New Zealander. Did you know that he was on the five dollar note? Imagine having your photo on the money of your country.
    I think asking him 'Why did you start climbing mountains' is a really great question. I wonder what makes people just decide to go and climb a mountain, especially the highest mountain in the world.
    Would you like to one day climb a mountain like Mount Cook or Mount Everest?
    I don't think it is something that I will ever do, I really don't like the cold so being in the snow is not me!
    Do you play any other sports? Or do you just like to ride Rosie?

    I enjoyed reading your questions Alicia, so well done.

    Until next time

    Allie :)
