Athletics Day


 Athletics    Day


Wooshhh!!


All these little kids zooming past as we cheered them on. My sister Amelia was neck and neck with Nina one of her best friend. As they were racing their heart out to get to the interschool athletics. Just at the end Nina leaped past Amelia.   


It's finally here.  Do you like athletics day? As you can Probably tell I love athletics. What is your all time favorite sport?


In athletics we do ball throw, 100 metre sprints, High jump, 200 metre sprints and last but not least long jump.  The teachers said first up for the year 5s are ball throw. we were all excited to get started. We all had 3 throws each to get further than before. I did my best and  came 6th. I thought that was a good placing. 


Next up was Long jump. 


It's not my best. But you should see my friend Aria, she is great at long jump. I did my first jump and ended up in 3rd place for a while. I had two more jumps and neither of them ended up at interschool. But for the year 5 girls Betsy in first then Zoe and coming in 3rd place Aria.


My favorite one was up next, 100 metre sprints. 


Sprints is not my best but I still like it.  On your mark get set go! yelled "koka Sue." I was in first then I went back. I almost made it into finals. I wish I did. Next up was 8  year 5 girls. Heaps of people were in first until the last minute. Sorry but I can't tell you exactly who won. But people were fast. 


High jump was up next. 


Matua Nic was the high jump teacher. I was 3rd in line. I ran jumped and missed. So I went down a cone with Zoe, Lila, Jago, Bridie and Indie J. Zoe went down then Lila next Jago me then Bridie again. The first place winners  for the girls were Aria and Betsy tieing so then Lola was in 2nd. 


Thanks for reading my blog about the awesome Athletics day.  I hoped you enjoyed reading it. I would love it if you told me what I could do for my next blog.  Please give me some feedback.

Travelling To Napier

 Travelling To Napier


Rolling along the foggy road. Trying to get to Mahia, by the time it was 6:00 am.  Travelling up foggy and bumpy roads, as it was still the hour 5. Are we there yet " yelled Amelia".  Almost "said  dad." We finally made it to Mahia!!!


My sister Amelia + my dad jumped on the boat with a life jacket and warm clothes since it was 5:30 am. My mum, Olive and me drove to the beach to see them get put into the water.  It was so cool seeing a boat get put in the water a whole different way. We left Mahia trying to get to Napier as fast as we could. 


We made it to Napier. But only the people that were in the car of course. All my family woke up at 4:00 am so we were starving. We went to have some breakfast at 9:00 am. My mum text my dad to see how far they were. And they were only 10-15 minutes away. We made it in time to get some photos of them coming in.
