A day for champion

I was last in line when I heard one of my friends say “Bobbi its your turn.” I stepped up to the mark.With the ball in my hand. I could feel my legs tremble I threw the ball as far as I could . I was so glad when Miss T told me I had won second place.

Yes! it was Pt England schools Athletics day(Athletics is when you do a bunch of events like Discus, Softball,Sprints and a lot of other stuff). Every year we put on a display of events to see to see who are the elite Athletes. At our school we are divide in to four house groups called Matatua,Te arawa,Takitimu and the best group of all Tanui.

After my cunning win of second place of with the softball throw it was time for Shot put. Having never came a place in shot put before I was nervous. This time I was one of the first people up. I put the ball by my ear as tension was growing hearing people cheering me on. Finding out my throw was good enough for 2nd place.

It was time for the event I had been waiting for I stood feeling a slight breeze run through my body really nervous listening to Mr Burt(Our Principle) Saying on your marks. I stood shaking as some people wanted to keep making us start all over again. It was time to get serious Mr Burt said on your marks get set BANG!! I sprinted down the track with the wind blowing through my face. Winning all my heats making it to the finals.

It was time for the finals I could fell mixed emotions as the Y7(year7)11year old girls were up. I ran down the track as fast as I could. My running was good enough for 1st in my 75 and 100 meter race.

The thing I liked most about Athletics was having a lot of fun and winning five certificates(1st in 75and100 meters,2nd in softball,2nd in discus and 3rd in shot put).I hope that when we find out the final results Tainui will come out on top for 2010 athletics. I can not wait until inter-zones!!

Over 50 kg VS Year 7 girls

Today we were ready to set off for another exciting game against Viscount Intermediate. Unfortunately it was cancelled due to the weather earlier this week. But we did not care instead we versed our over 50 kg boys team. We got ready into our uniform nervous and thinking we were going to lose. Our coach's(Mrs Flavell and Bobbi) gave us some words of encouragement.


It was finally game time as we set up on the field our captain's trying to get organise as some people were mucking around. It was time to get serious the ball was let out as their forward pack came crushing down we all helped and someone rip the ball and passed to Etta scoring the first try of the game.

At the end of the game we came out with a cunning win 3 trys to 1. I think the best tacklers of the game were Racheal and Mauina because they took down a really big person(Richard ). But my favourite parts of Rugby is getting tackled and tackling.Having that game has boosted my confidence and I can't wait to have that match with Viscount!!

Our rugby game against Henderson

There I was sitting in the car shivering waiting for our game. While we were in the car we were chatting about how nervous we were and how we couldn't wait to tackle someone.

When we arrived at Henderson Intermediate we thought that our game was going to be easy but it wasn't.

Everything started to get nasty the girls on the other team started pulling hair and defending the wrong way.

At the end of the we lost but at least we tried our best and never gave up. I think that we did really well I am so proud of myself because I got player of the day for the first time ever. I CANT WAIT UNTIL OUR NEXT GAME!!

Here is some footage of our game.

Mt Wellington Auckland volcano

This term we have been learning about our Active Earth. Here is a paragraph about Mt Wellington.

Mt.Wellington is well known for its quarry that has been recently been taken out. There has been lots of evidence found like food storage pits to show that Maori inhabited Mt Wellington.

Mt Wellington is also named in the honour of the Duke of Wellington.

Here is a video about Mt Wellington I hope like it

YEAR SEVEN FINALLY AT PT ENGLAND SCHOOL

Yes! I shouted it was my first year at Point England INTERMEDIATE. It was time for our first assembly. We had to see what class we were in I was so nervous my hands were sweating.

When we sat down Mr Burt said "WELCOME BACK PT ENGLAND SCHOOL!". Everyone was so tired from the holidays and could hardly talk.

I was so excited it was time to see what class we were in. As I heard Mr Burt say my name I was said "yay!" I finally was in Mrs Nua again.
