super sports

 On the 7th of November I got to do korf ball.  we're doing sports for 4 weeks.   I have two more sports to go lawn bowl and cricket then one more round of korf ball. korf ball is  a game in the Netherlands.   Here are some of the rules .  girls can only Mark girls and boys can only Mark boys.  The hoops were more in the middle  and they weren't like basketball or netball hoops that we have.  My team won.  Once we all started to get the hang of it he added in more rules.   I can't wait for next time.

 What sport would you chose to do out of lawn bowls cricket and korf balls?

Marvellous museum Fun

On Monday the 16th of September our school St Francis of Assisi when to the museum.  we learnt about Maori technology and then got to have a look around  the museum. we were in groups.  I had five people in my group there was Natalie Zoe me Claudia and ebony. The first activity we did he was learning about Maori technology.  we learnt about how they survived when they first came to Aotearoa.  we found out that back in those days they didn't have as much of the disease as we have now. The person that was   telling us about the Maori technology he, told us a story about a  Taniwha. He said  that the only stone that can cut green stone is sandstone.  After we got to have a look around we saw lots of the Maori technology we even got to feel green stone. Then we got lead  into a classroom where we were allowed to do some  Maori technology. The  activities where smoothing rocks with sandstone.    drilling with a green stone we had to rub very hard to try make a fire we didn't ,   luckily.   we also did cave drawings and we did carvings. After  it was time for lunch.  Once we're finished eating we're allowed to play in a big tree with lots of branches to climb and swing on.I nearly got stuck.  Then we were finished playing in the big tree so we went to have a look around the museum we got to see the wizard. He had a long beard and a huge long walking stick. We then went to visit the  Antarctic Section. There was a polar bear, brown bears and black bears. The were wood statues that you could stand on and  compare your size. Next we went up stairs to see an 100 year old fruit cake. The tin looked all rusty. We then moved onto the dinosaurs
. When we were about to leave we rubbed our hands on the green stone for good luck. We then hoped on the bus and arrived back at school.

Have you ever been to the museum. What was your favourite bit about it?

wonderles winter sport

Over the winter sports season my team have won 1 lost lots and tied 2.  I Play hockey for winter sports.  My teammates are GoO Gabriel Cooper Frank Tama and Zoe. I would of chosen soccer but I wanted to try hockey. I play soccer for Club named Burwood. This was my first time playing hockey.  I was really bad at hockey but now I've improved my skills.  I keep practising until I got really good and now my skills have got better. The hardest thing for us or our team was  we versed teams that play hockey for Saturtday sport none of our team did. But some of them used to. what I learnt about hockey is that it's best to have sportsmanship and a positive attitude. No matter how many times you have lost or won it is all about having fun.           

If you did winter sport at your  school and you had a choice between  soccer hockey rugby and netball which one would you choose?
