Yesterday (6.11.18) it was athletics day. It went all day and yet we had to finish the rotation this morning. We got to wear our house colours and could bring $3 for an ice-cream or ice-block- this was a fundraiser for the children of Samoa.
Yesterday for sprints I came last on my first race and tied with a friend on the 200m sprint. I'm not sad or mad that I didn't get a placing because I tried and I'm proud of what I achieved. Later on at long jump, I did a bit better. I was confident and went further than I anticipated. Today we did ball throw and high jump. High jump was a choice so I decided not to. I watched the Y6 girls and Y3 boys do their thing on high jump, while the others like me played twisted, concentration and other games. Moving on to ball throw I waited in line for a while, when it was my turn I think on one of my throws I threw 11.3m. That's all I heard though. When we were done, it was already morning tea.

ReplyDeleteIt was nice to hear about your athletics experience. I also liked how you stayed so positive even though you didn't get a placing. I too came last but hey look on the bright side we don't have to go to inter-schools. Your post was very well written and easy to read. Keep up the good work and positive attitude.
