Week 7 Term 2

Bonjour Everyone!

We had Volleyball on Monday after assembly, but sadly I couldn't play because I hurt my fingers!!  I hurt them in a really stupid way though.  When I was putting my jeans on on Sunday, I caught my finger on the material and my middle finger bent and it REALLY hurt!!!  Mrs Tyson said she thought it was definitely broken, and that I shouldn't play volleyball.  Mum took me to the doctors that afternoon, and they x-rayed it and said they couldn't see anything!!  Which is quite annoying because I keep hurting myself and it turns out to be nothing every single time.  I don't WANT to break anything, but it's just annoying hurting myself all the time and not being sure if I'm being dramatic or not.

At competition Jump Jam on Tuesday we started a new routine for our video entry later on in the year, and it's got a lot of tricky movements, but I hope I can get them!  Next Friday we have a Jump Jam workshop since Wims was cancelled, and I'm excited because Brett Farweather, the creator of Jump jam is coming!  Lots of other people have already met him at other workshops, but I haven't so I'm kinda excited.  I hope it goes well and I learnt lots.

Au Revoir!  A Bientot!

Week 6 Term 2

Bonjour everyone!!!

This week was off to a normal start, but got very exciting towards the end!

On Friday I went to a place called Ngaruawahia, and did the Tough Guy And Gal Challenge.  It was SOOO muddy, but REALLY fun.  This year was my first year doing its, and I can definitely say I'm going to do this next year.  There were lots of obstacles and they ALL involved mud.  Even if you were running on flat ground, it was still really muddy.  At the start there was a hill we had to run up that wasn't that slippery, but then we got into the paddock, and that's were things got slippery.  We had to climb through tunnels that were full of mud, and they smelt really bad!!  Before we started we painted our faces with yellow, red, and blue face paint, and put CK on our foreheads which stands for Cure Kids, what we were fundraising for.  The paint didn't stay on long though.  We had to swim through huge pools of mud, and we slipped over heaps in the muddy banks.  It was still so fun though!!  I ended up running with my friend Bobby, and towards the end I had to pull her up because she got stuck!  When we crossed the finish line together we were very happy, but very worn out.  Can't wait to do it again next year!!!!!!!

Au Revoir!

Week 5 Term 2

Bonjour!

On Monday I received my SILVER BADGE!!!!!  I was very happy, and it was very cool!  It looks the same as the bronze badge except it has silver on the back and around the edges of the front.  There are only FIVE of us who have it (including me), and we are on the achievers board!  The funny thing is the people who got it are all from my class, and it was: Hadlee, Cheng-Yu, Arden, Catlin, and ME!!!  It's very exciting to be in the first five to get it!

Mrs Crowe was away on Monday and Tuesday, but on Tuesday I managed to catch up with mainly ALL my work!  I had to do my whole writing task, whole reading task, and all my maths, but luckily I got it done!!!

On Friday was teachers only day, but sadly I had to go to school because my mum had to work :(  So all I got to do on Friday was laminating, and it was very boring,  but it wasn't too bad because I didn't have to do to much so it was just a nice quiet day.  After lunch I went to my friends house though, and we made cookies.  Then on Monday of next week it's a holiday as well for Queens Birthday, so it'll be an extra long weekend!!! YAY!
