Swimming

Swimming | Definition, History, Strokes, & Facts | Britannica

Today we went swimming to practice for swimming sports tomorrow. We were going back and forth swimming laps working on our technique, Like our underwater kick and our Breaststroke kick. We were getting timed so most of us were trying to beat each other’s time. My best time was 22 seconds for freestyle and 29 seconds for breaststroke. I was pretty happy with those times but I knew I could be faster and waste my old time. Have you been I swimming sports?

The library

Today we went to the library to grab a book, sadly:(  We had to bring it back to class for reading. In the library, the bros Tauwharangi and PJ were at the back so I went back there to get a book and sit next to them. We were down there for a solid ten minutes reading but we just sat there looking at a wall. We had to grab a book and give it to the librarians to sign it out. Have you got a book out from the library?

Beach day

Today we went down to the beach for a beach trip. We had Edi, Ruth,  Mania, and Ambar from Surf Life Saving. They came from Raglin and even England to be surf lifesavers over here in New Zealand.

The first thing we did was learn about the dissimulator and where it goes because it is different for kids and different for adults. On an adult, u would place the pads on the right side of the heart and below the heart so the electric pulse through the heart and betting again at a normal pace.

They taught us about the rips and the different parts of the rip like the start where the water is pulling from the shallows of the rip and is taking us out to the back of the head of the rip which is behind the breakers. The middle bit is the strongest which pulls you all the way out fast. The annoying thing is that you have to swim all the way in again.

We finally got out of all the education stuff and we went into the water. We were split up into two groups I was in a group that did tube rescues and the other group did bogey boarding. We had to choose a duo and then we had one friend come to rescue you, we did that for a little while then we swapped over and then we went to do some bogey boarding.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2024

The start of this year has been not the most exciting, there have been some good times but not to fun. I had my dad come in to teach because the school was short on teachers. since most of my mates were older than me they all left to go to college. I don’t really miss them but I kinda get bored without them. This year hopefully is gonna get better with the trip that we were told was gonna happen but lets see. Hows your 2024 going?

What I want to be when im older

The thing that I want to be when im older is a professional athlete to any sports but Id like to be a rugby player like my dad. I have a passport for italy so I can play over there and gain more money. I enjoy playing rugby Ive played since I was a child.

Im planing on getting a trade so if my rugby carrera doesn’t go how I planned it I would fall back on the trade. I am trying to have a successful future and have many options but I want to follow my dads path of a rugby player and get money off it.

Im practicing to be a good player but I dont think im playing good enough but im gonna try for any sports i get an opportunity to play for. I might play soccer because you can get heaps of money off soccer so I might go for that for a year for the money.

If I could play the sports with my mates I would 100 percent do it because Im alot better at playing sports with my friends because we like to be competitive Against each other and we play better. My goal is just to be a great player so I can gain alot of money.

Tech

Today I had tech, for tech i have wood works. In wood works I have to make a mallet or a hammer. Today i finaly finished it and I was alowed to take it home. we went back on the bus and I wasnt alowed to have it out becaue it was to dangerous. have you gone to tech?

soccer

Today I played soccer with the school. we were running back and forth to get the ball but the little kids kept getting in the way. I shot the ball halfway but I missed then i got a good pass and slipped. I was trying to get another opportunity and then I got the ball and shot I made the goal and I was happy. Have you had this pressure?

soccer

Today my mates and I played soccer on the field. I got a goal really early and then ran back and missed horribly but then my team got a corner kick and almost got a goal but my teammate missed it was a great pass as well perfectly in front of him and he missed the ball and blamed me for too strong of a kick. I ran for the ball and then I got slide-tackled, now I have a big bruise on my shins. Have you played soccer before?

Soccer

Today the boys and I played soccer because no little kids were at school due to their athletics so we could play without little kids annoying us. We were Playing around in so unfair teams that made the games more fun but then at lunch, we had to make it more fair so the other team stopped winging. Have you played school soccer?
