Badminton


Badminton this term was really fun and good practice for some of us who have just started. I only just found out that Badminton was a sport and I never knew how to play it. When I started playing I felt that I was good at it.

Every week I was learning new skills and strategies and was becoming better every time I played. Sometimes hitting the shuttle around was not easy, so every time I did hit the shuttle I felt good.


At the end of every session we had to aim for the bin and try to hit the shuttle in. In Badminton you have to concentrate really hard so you get it right. If you don't get it right its ok just try again.

In the 3rd session we had a different tutor who was younger than the other one. Our normal instructor was away because she was playing in a masters tournament. She won a silver medal and brought it in to show us in the last Badminton session.


On the last week of badminton we were all excited when we saw the nets because we wanted to test ourselves and see if we were a better player against another player. Now Badminton is one of my favourite sports thanks to this school who provided it for us. Everyone was happy to know that Badminton was finished and excited to know what the next sport

Auckland Snows


The snow fell in Auckland City yesterday on the 15 of August. Cars were stuck on roads and people were cold in there beds and could not get out of the house. Some people were surprised at the weather because it hasn’t snowed in Auckland for a very long time. Lots of people have never seen or touched snow before. In the snow people like to make snow angles. ell in Auckland City yesterday on the 15 of August. Cars were stuck on roads and people were cold in there beds and could not get out of the house.
