Duffy Show

This week on Tuesday we had a Duffy Show. It was based on bullying, and how we should treat others the way we expect to be treated, and how reading can relax your mind when you're angry or being bullied. 


It also makes us realize that bullies can be everywhere you go like at school and at home. 

Tennis

Last week, we had Tennis with our coach  Pete. He taught us how to use the rackets when hitting the tennis ball. It wasn't that hard for some of our classmates because they all played it at morning tea. Others were good at controlling the rackets while others weren't good. 

My first  partner was Julianne for the warm up. Then Leanah was my partner  when we were playing tennis.

I really enjoyed and had fun playing with our classmates. 

Start Of Term 4

It's the start of Term 4. I was enthusiastic to be back at school and learn more and more things. 

When I came to school we had to focus really hard, especially for the year 8's who will be going to college next year. There will be tests that we will have attend because it will be much more harder when you're away.  

Hopefully, I'll do better than before.

Last Hip Hop Lesson With JJ

Sadly, I wasn't their for the last hip hop lesson that my whole classroom had. I was so depressed because I really wanted to be their with JJ or Jess, to learn more hip hop movements. 

When I first went their I thought it was going to be really hard and that I would struggle. But gladly JJ was there to help us all the way. 

I really hoped that I was their with the rest of the students learning some hip hop moves. 

Hip Hop With Jess

Today we had hip hop with Jess, I was so nervous because I don't know how to dance. Jess was really good in dancing as she was teaching us some basic movements.

 My class and I were giggling a lot as we were learning the steps for hip hop.

After a few minutes it was done and I couldn't wait until next Tuesday.

Tired and Puffed Out

Yesterday we had the Athletics Inter-schools competition, we were going against other schools. I was very nervous and scared that other people might beat me but I still tried my best. I had three races which were the 200 and 100 metre run. I was also apart of the relay team. 

For the 200 metre heat I placed second so I made it into the finals, but sadly I didn't place. I was still proud of myself though. A while later it was time for the 100 metre race and I came fifth. Then for the relays we came third in the finals and the heat. I was so puffed out and tired when we finished. But I really enjoyed the whole experience and I can't wait to go again next year!

Earning My Certificate for Athletics

`

This morning, right after Athletics training we all sat down in our fitness groups. Mr Reid handed out the certificates to the people that had placed as first, second and third.

First, it was the people that had placed third. I received a certificate for coming third in the 400m run out of the year seven and eight girls. I was very proud of myself because I achieved my goals. I also earned a certificate for the 200m run for the year seven girls and first for 100m run. I was so happy that I came first, second, and third.

Graphics

At tech we had graphics. I was so not excited to go there. But we had to. When we were there our first task was to find a seat and listen to teacher. We had to draw our full names but each letter had to be different from one an other. We had to hand out some supplies like rulers, pencils and a piece of paper. Also we had to only draw it up to six centimeters. I drew in block letters and done some patterns inside it. When I was drawing, I was done. Then we had to colour it in. After a while it was time to go I was so proud of myself that I finished it and I couldn't wait to back next week on Wednesday.
