Friday 17 May Winter sports

Winter Sports 

Yesterday we had Winter sports. This was exciting for me because it was my first day doing winter sports. Winter sports is when we get to go to Hagley park and compete with other teams. This week we couldn't make it to  our destination because our game was going to start in a different location in two minutes but we had to walk another thirty minutes to get there. Mrs dowling then had to text our coach because she had to walk there too. So in the end we played against each other. 

The results  were as follows.... 17-2 ... to US!

On Thursday we had a Catholic Sports Tournament. The Catholic sports tournament is when we get to choose between 4 sports. Hockey,Football,Netball and Riper rugby. I choose Football because it is my Favourite sport. As we were on the bus  I was so excited. Our first game was St James we just bet them 2-0 to us.  I scored the both of the goals. Then we had a bye which was lucky because we had some time to eat some lunch.  After we went over to pitch 7 it was my mum's team that were playing -unfortunately they lost. Then we had to verse them. One of my favourite thing in that game was when I skilled the whole team and scored.

End of Term Reflection

End of Term reflection

This term has been a amazing term we got to do loads of fun activity's. We got to do fun things like Korfball,Caritas Challenge Day  - this where we got to feel what the people feel in South Sudan. We ate rice, made shelters out of cardboard and that's all!Another thing was spheros, spheros was my personal highlight spheros is where you are giving this little ball and you get to code it around!! Another one was our eel learning ,We got to go to Centennial Stream and learn a lot about eel's we got to touch them as well they are very slimy creatures and!! There was some whitebait that we got to touch . But my low light was the LEARNZ conference because we just sat there and listen to people taking over and over again. 

I am really looking forward to next term!!

Holy Week

Holy Week 

This week is Holy Week. Holy Week is when we remember the crucifixion of Jesus.

I know that the last Sunday of Holy Week is called Passion Sunday because it is the start of Passion Week.

This is my learning from this week. 

 Thursday 4 April  Refugee day 

Yesterday we had a Caritas challenge. We  got to make cardboard houses. We only got to use  1 metre of duct tape and 2 metres of string to build the hut. We also  got to eat rice to feel what the South Sudan people  really have. I only ate rice for the whole day I just wanted to try it out. But I totally regret it because I was really sick from having no food except rice. I had no dinner, breakfast and lunch.

Korfball  Friday 29 March 

This week we got to play Korfball. In case you don't know what Korfball is, it is like netball and basketball we got to play it all week. We all knew how to play. Sometimes there were some issues but it was really fun. Our teacher was Yuri he was all the way from Netherlands.
