The opening ceromony for Rugby World cup 2011

The opening ceremony for the rugby world cup was Amazing. We watch every game of the Rugby world cup. The first game was awesome and Tonga was pretty good but Dan Carter was playing a kicking game so Tonga would get tired. The ceremony was Really Awesome because the carts looked like real boats on the field of Eden Park, and they made the William Web Ellis cup look like it was real metal for me but I dont know about the rest.

Badminton

On the third week of term three, we had badminton. When we got there we saw shuttles and there were feathers on them, The badminton demonstrator told us some moves and some other stuff.

On the first activity, we had to get a racket and a shuttle for our first go, but it was only me that didn't know how to do it. Doing it was pretty hard for me that's why I had to start with the beginner rackets witch were the little ones. We had to get a cone, my partner hit the shuttle and I had to catch it in the cone and it was pretty hard cause Lorenzo did not serve it properly, but in our second go I got it in the cone.

The last one we had to get five shuttles and we have to make a circle and make a circle and we had to make a half in the circle. After that we had to see who can get the most in the bin and it was a bit tricky for some people, I managed to get three in the bin.

After a while some more awesome things it was time to go back to class and room fourteen came and then Howard dragged me on the floor the I got in trouble for play fighting with him. Sadly I had to write two hundred words and wasn't a allowed to play game the whole day.

The Beep Test

In week one, my class went to do the Beep test . A beep test is when you run to the cone and back before the beep goes. That's why its called beep test . The girls went first. They were pretty good but some people were cheating, they weren't quite making the beep in time. The girls were not giving up but some people gave up. The only people who made it were Grace and Gianna. The last person standing was Gianna because Grace slipped on the cone . Miss Vaafusuanga carried Grace on her back all the way to sick bay.

When us boys lined up for our turn I thought to myself, "This was going to be easy." When we started it was unexpected. I did not know that the beep test was hard but i gave it my all up until the fifth level. I dropped out because I was too tired to keep going. Jesse dropped out, Howard did too and Neo, Mikaiha and some of the other boys . The people who were still going included Jonathan who had joined us because he had missed out on the beep test his class did. Frankie was the other boy to finish last, he was a fast dude.

My goal is to last longer in the next beep test. I can achieve this by eating healthy and keeping fit by exercising.

Swimming

When we found out we were going swimming I was so happy, but when I heard that we started next week I was blown away. Before we started our first swimming session, we had to be split into two groups because one group had to go to Mr Marks and the other had to go Miss Garden. Miss Garden had told us some awsome lessons and I was almost as good as the pro group level. I managed to be the third bestest in my group.

When we got there we had to get changed into our togs then we had to hop in the pool, it was so warm. Miss Garden told us we only had 30 minutes so I had to make the most of that time that she gave us . When I hoped in the pool, I was so warm that I did a happy sigh. We had to get out of the pool, it was team twos turn to have a turn.
