Big long muddy walk

Our class wanted to walk to the end of our Awa (Hamanatua) on the walk to the farm we noticed that there where many different streams and rivers that lead to the same way as our Awa. First we had to jump a little river to get to the first hill then we made our way through bogs and mud to the first stop. Then we had brain break.

Then we ventured through more mud and paddocks to get to the second break lunch. We had a look and found the end a huge wetland which technically went further but we called it a day. We saw so many tributaries which are mini streams that feed into our river. We made our way back to school I was relieved it was finished.

Cross Country

 On Wednesday, we walked to the cross country track. I was nervous, stretching before the race made me feel better. "On your marks, get set, GO!" Off I went running my hardest, coming round the first corner. Then, Jogging the uphill and sprinting the down. I had a good method going, until then came 'the dip' this is what slowed me down, that down, then up, was horrible. I sprinted all the way till my first lap was done.

At this point, I kept going and made my way to the finish. I was totally exhausted but proud. "Yes!" I said, as I gulped my water like a thirsty camel, after a 100 day trek across the Saharah desert. The rain was now spitting and it was starting to get cold. LUckily, it was time to head back to school. As I had brain break, I felt very happy finding out I came 10th.

   

Cross country training

 Panting, gasping for breath, my legs were on fire, a waterfall of sweat dripping down my face. "Me haere, me haere!" I said to myself, I pushed through the exhaustion with my first lap done. I ran down the ditch falling over half through the steep part recovering only just. The air felt heavy, almost like a truck was on my back.

I got around Koka Pip, she said "keep running", it was intense, I couldn't hear anything else except my own thoughts. Coming around Koka Rozie for the second time "home stretch" she said. I zoomed down the ditch, not falling this time.

I was coming through the bollards, I shot off like a racecar "YES! YES!YES!" I'm finally done. I fell to the ground, it felt like I had jumped in a volcano, getting harder and harder to breath. A wave of relief rolled over me I layed and waited for everyone else to finish.  

    

  

Rugby!!

 Tomorrow is our first rugby game Wainui wasters Vs Saint marys.  Today we had rugby training we had a special coach come in to teach how to win the ruk.  A ruk is when someone gets tackled goes down and 5-7 people run in and push the opision off the ball.  This where I come in I run up behind rip the ball the pass it to the wingers.  But my mum forget to remind me to get my rugby stuff so I played in my shoes.  Our game is at our school which means its called a home game so we each have to bring a plate of food. 

    

Beach clean up

 On Wednesday we went to Wainui Beach consideiring our school is one road and 10 meters of sand dunes away. Rori, Momo and I were in a group for a beach clean, it sounds boaring but there is so much cool stuff to find. One group found three balloons. Our group found a little styrofoam bear he was so cute.

We found a sick river wave then we finger surfed it with some drift wood then we got told off because Raphi kept going in the water. We walked back on the road and found tons more stuff like gloves, plastic bags and even found five pie bags. Back at school the other kids where planting beetroot, celery and peas.

We sorted all the rubish turns out we had more than we thought and the teacher said we could all get a prize it was fun THE END.
