The Amazing Game Called T - Ball

 In Te Maunga we have been doing T - Ball. T - Ball was only for the year fives, I am a year five so I don't have to worry. For T - ball you had fielders and batters, the batters are the people who bat the ball and run to each base. The fielders had to try to catch the ball and chuck it to the people by the base, they had to tap it on the base and hold it. What I enjoyed during  T - Ball was hitting the ball and running to each base, the thing I didn’t like was when someone got you out. My question for you is have you ever played T - Ball?

Cross Country

 On the 25th of October Paihia School did cross country at Bledisloe Domain. My course was really big. First we had to go around the field, then we had to jump over the gate, run to the next gate, run up that hill to the other gate, and run to one of the teachers. After that you go past them and run to the last gate, then turn around the last gate, run down that hill all the way to the first gate we jumped over and run to the finish line. After the race I was pumped and I didn’t even want to walk all I wanted to do was lie on the floor and have a drink of my water. I was coming third the whole way just at the end I slowed down and came fourth.

Cross Country

Last Friday on the 30th of August we had cross country. I had to run with the  9 year old because it was my birthday. We had to run around the field once, over the gate, around a cone, up the hill, around another cone, then back down the hill, over the gate again, then down to the finish line. What I came in cross country was 5th place. I loved everything. The thing I loved the most was that my two little cousins Anahera & Ezekiel and my Mum and Aunty was there to support me & my sister. My class Te Maunga practiced at school everyday & every week except for Friday  The whole class ran except for Teah and Charlize.I improved 5 to 6 times in running.
