HI Mrs Stevenson

Hi Mrs Stevenson,

this term I have enjoyed lots of things. On Monday we had James who was doing skills with us. My  favourite part was when we were dribbling the ball to the other end of the cones. I was sad because I thought we were playing soccer. The time when we had soccer was at 11.30, 30 mins before lunch.

the minstrel show

At the beginning of the week we had a Minstrel show. 

When we got in the hall there was Mr Minstrel and Mrs Minstrel. 

and Mr Minstrel was playing a guitar. And he was saying 

thank you in a cute voice then he played a few songs and 

asked some  people to go up with him.  The people that 

went up the minstrel would rhyme there name with 

something funny . He told some stories one was about 

life-jackets and how they keep you safe. At the end We 

got to dance and all of the people who went up  got a poster.                                           

                                  

cross country

On Tuesday we went to Johnny Jones farm for cross country. There were 5 other schools there too, the school’s were Pompallier school, Paparore school, Aniwaniwa school, Abundant life school and Awanui school. We have a uniform with our school logo on it they are blue. When we got there we got to eat one thing from our lunch. Then the girls with the number 5 or 6  on their hand had to run. Grace was the first one in this race. Then the boys went. I didn't know who was first. Then the girls with the number 7 had to go for their run. Then it was my turn to run. We started at the top of the hill but before we ran Sir made us do warmups. We had to run down the hill and around the side of the farm. It was hard because I fell over. We had to turn right and go through sand and then between a fence, then run straight, we had to turn left and run straight again. We also went into a sand pit then we had to go down hill. We came across quick mud I think because it felt like I was sinking. Finally I saw the gate to go through to go between the cones and there was the finish line I came 12th place. I was so glad it was over.
