judes cross county

What am I doing? Oh right, yeah cross country.We walked down the road to coranation parkand everyone was bubbling with joy. When we arrived we were all excited and happy. That was until we ran. My cherry red cheeks gave away the fake smile I gave to the college teachers. I was puffed and I had to run another lap! Keep going I said to myself. The teachers cheered me on as I went up the steep, annoying hill.my legs were getting tired, but I didn't give up. I went two laps without stopping. Ok, I stopped once, but oh well! Heavy breathing was all I could let out of my mouth. I coulden't even talk.I relaxed on the grass and soon we were walking back. I'm so prould and I think I did well! I only stopped oncebut, hey, all goods!

On the 24th of May 2012 we walked down to Corranation Park as a team. Before we ran, Mrs Spiers put a C on us if we were doing 2 laps. I was one of them. The year fives went first and then the year sixs. We all ran extremely well and in each year group the top six students are going to interschools.It was a raelly cool day!!! Congradulations to Hamish who will be representin room 9 in the interschools.Good luck!

Camp El Rancho 2012

What a fantastic camp we had last week. As you would have seen in the previous post we had a great day 1 and days 2 and three were equally as awesome. The children, parents and teachers enjoyed the range of activities that were on offer. Big thank you to the El Rancho team and also to the Lido for opening the hydro slides for us.
Also a massive thank you to the parents who came with us. Without you it would not have been possible.

Camp El Rancho

Day 1 at el Rancho. We have a great 1st day at camp. Had an excellent time down at the beach building forts and playing in the sand dunes. Children are having a fantastic time on the water slide, mini golf, and team building activities.
