Cross Country


Inline image 1


Waiting under the shade away from the sun. Watching other students do the run. We the year 8 and 7 boys sat there singing. Me Kendrix & xavier decided we would run together. As were running Kendrix dropped back because he had a stitch. I stopped and walked back to him as Xavier kept on running.

Me & kendrix started running again. Straight after we started running. I ended up with a stitch. We ran with a couple of friends. My calves were aching, The sweat was like warm rain drops falling down my skin. Running through the massive puddles was like a bath for my legs.
Zooming straight down the puddles washes the mud right off my legs.

There were a lot of support. The tamaki service people cheered you on when you run pass. As we reached our second lap. I was tired so I stopped to catch my breath. I ran off passing all the teaching and the people from tamaki college.

The fun run


Fun Run!
The fun run the fun run! It was exhausting I had sore calf muscles & a aching back!. It was a 5k run. Hard run but i finished, The whole of team 5 did the fun run. One of the teacher’s ran with us, I finally found out what house i’m in too. I’m in the blue house!

Each lap was 1k & we did five laps!. I'm still a bit sore from the run & my leg’s are still aching. My shoulders a still sore. The mud was so soft your feet went straight down when you ran in it. I tried to run around the mud but it was everywhere.

I stopped once every lap and started walking, My legs were numb and my fingers too. I finally finished a while after.

Rugby


Rugby Rugby the sport we love! New Zealand is the best at it. We play we win. I have a rugby team u13s open we’re coming 4th on the ladder so far we’re a good team. We’re like a big family. I've scored 10 points for my team so far that’s 2 tries. I'll make it more before the season ends.

Rugby helps me stay fit. It helps me become strong, makes me push myself even when I’m sore. I just push myself to the limit. I'm a winger number 14 right side. I like to play flanker blind side and lock. I like stepping, getting run aways and I like getting smart when I'm running.

I love getting cheered on when I'm getting run aways. My legs get sore and I get tired. The saturday just past, we played against the Manukau Rover’s. We just won by 8 points. It was a hard game but we won.

Red


Once upon a time there was a little boy who was abandoned at the age of 12. He was left all alone in the woods after a tragic accident,where he got separated from his parents. He searched and searched for them. After years of searching he had no hope left inside of him. Being in the woods all alone he trained himself how to fight. Before the accident his parents told him that there was a vicious wolf out there so be carefull.

He adapted to the lifestyle of the woods. He knew how to hunt, how to hide and how to survive from the dangerous animals in the woods. One day he found a letter in his pocket from the pants his mum  had packed him. The letter said , “Son if you are reading this you have survived. You are not alone in the woods  and you have a grandmother out there living in a small house.”
“What? How is that possible? Did my parents plan this?,” he thought feeling confused.

He rose up from the ground holding the letter to his chest having deep thoughts in his head, as a tear dropped down his face. He decided to look for this house.

As he was walking he suddenly heard the howl of a wolf. Taken by surprise he slipped down a ledge of a hill. He struggled to stop himself. He heard the wolf getting closer and closer. The wolf’s scream scared him, he looked backed then faced forward.... smack!.

He went straight into a tree. You could hear the crack as his body and the tree colliding. “Ahh,” he screamed as his  leg went first into the tree,snapping the bone then head on.He struggled to get up. The wolf was still howling, he was praying for his life. Wincing with pain, he pulled his leg up off the ground. Then grabbed a thick strong stick to keep his balance. Limping, he walked downhill to a flat path.

The wolf’s howling stopped. Red saw a house. He immediately walked down to the house as quietly and slowly as possible. He saw a figure and decided to call out.
“Grandma!!” he yelled at the top of his lungs. He walked through the entrance door turned right to see his a little old lady lying in bed.
He walked over to say hello.
“What a big nose you have gran”, he said noticing a big black hairy snout. With no reply he got suspicious.

In a flash the  wolf leapt out of the bed to attack Red. As Red was just about to get eaten his dad, huntsman came to the rescue and slayed the wolf.
“Where were you?
But then the dad told him in the middle of the pool of blood. That his mother had died. From this wolf years after we left you.

Oobleck


Yesterday we made oobleck with cornflour and water green food coloring. First we added half a cup of cornflour then half a cup of water. But we needed to add more cornflour in because it was too watery so we tipped in more cornflour then added food coloring.

The oobleck went hard but when you lifted it in your hand it would melt and fall off your hand. It would go all gooey and it stinked.

No game two big loses.





The worst day of my life when I had no rugby game. Knowing I had a by, playing for marist the best team out here. All training's were cancelled yucky weather.  

The week after with no training's cause of the weather. We were destroyed out on the field two times in a row. We were slacking it on the field. We struggled with no training's and no game.

We lost but we will strike again with a nil win this Saturday we will be champs.
