Volley Ball- Kiwi Sport

 A while ago, my class and I had Kiwi sport, which was volleyball. It was really fun! On the first day of Kiwi sport we met our coach, and her name was Renae. The first skill that we had to learn was the over-arm serve and the under arm serve. Renae said that you have to have a strong hand in order to do both serves.

For the under arm serve, you have to hold the ball with your left hand and do a small throw. Just a throw upwards that will land back on your hand. Then before the ball lands on your hand you swing your right arm towards the ball. With your palm hitting under the ball.

Having HOPE

 As you know a few days ago it was Daffodil day. We celebrate Daffodil day to donate a gold coin for the cancer society to find a cure. Ruapotaka HOPES that the cancer society will find a cure for cancer.

On Daffodil day I received a daffodil form my principal. I did because I donated a gold coin to help those in need. So far doctors and nurses have not found a cure. HOPEFULLY soon they will.  You can help those in need to, by donating a gold coin next year.

TIRING Cross Country




 This year cross country was one of the most tiring days of my life! To be honest though, it was actually one of the best, except for the whole running thing.

So, first off we had to sit down in our years, on the benches. So there was one bench for the year 1's, 2's and so on. We had to wait until years from 1 to 5 had finished. Students at my school were running like the flash. I'm so proud of them, how they ran as fast as they could and did not give up.

It was finally time for the year 6's to run. I had butterfly's in my stomach plus nervous system starting to explode inside. I did not give up, and little do you know I came first out of the girls! Plus all of the year 6's.
