ELECTIVES

Hi guys and today I'll be talking about the first few weeks of electives. Electives happens every year in term 2 and every other year in term 3. Electives is where students choose different activities to do every Friday. I chose sport as my elective.

In the first week we did volleyball which wasn't that fun to be honest. But the last two weeks were amazing. In the second week we played different team games like Capture The Flag, Kill the Cone and Doctors. They were all fun to play, The recent week of electives was last week and we did four corner sport. It was the best so far. In four corner sport there is four teams and four corners hence, four corner sport. Each person in the group is given a number. Number one is the shortest/youngest kid, depending on how the teams were made, and the numbers go up until the tallest/oldest kid has been counted.

The first few weeks have been fun and enjoyable. I haven't learnt much these past few weeks because well... it's sport there isn't really anything to be learnt. It was definitely what I was expecting, fun and BANTER. I can do my best in everything I do and listen so we have more time to play.

So that was the post for this week and I'll see you guys next time.

Castle Stuff

An Amazing Castle (That we didn't make)
Hi guys I'm back and today I'll be talking about the castle building I did last week. We were split into different groups and I was in a group with Liam, Fraser and Jesse. We built the castle 3D and the material we used was card. We worked together by halving the work in two where two people do one thing and the other two do another thing. We made decisions by talking to each other and asked each other what we could do the best to help with the castle. A problem we had was that we talked too much about something that didn't involve the castle building at all. We fixed this problem by having a moment and talked to each other to stop and get on with our work.

So that was the post for this week and I'll see you guys next week.

Cross Country

Hi guys I'm back and today I'll be talking about everyone's favorite...
Banter
Cross Country!!!
Technically some people don't like it (that includes myself) but I don't really mind running it.
The cross country is fun but it's very exhausting. I enjoyed the cross country and I was 3rd so I'll be running in the northern zone cross country. Which is weird because two years ago I was always eighth or ninth! My other compatriots to go to the northern zones are Liam who came first, James in second, Fraser in fourth and Haveesha in fifth.

I showed lots of perseverance because about 500 meters into the race, that's a quarter of the course, I wanted to quit. But I persevered and forced myself to not stop running and it got me third. Haveesha also showed perseverance because he was in front of me until just before the end but he got a stitch and persevered and he got fifth.

I saw many people show empathy because everyone supported and encouraged each other which was a nice thing to see.

So that was the post for this week and I'll see you guys next time.

Allegiant (This post is not sponsored :( )

Hi guys I'm back, after the holidays, and today I'll be talking about a movie I watched in the holidays. That movie is Allegiant. I've watched Divergent and Insurgent the two movies that came out before this final movie.


The plot of the movie is that Tris, a divergent, and her four accomplices are trying to run from their city of destroyed Chicago and find civilization outside the walls. They eventually found civilization but the people there are doing bad things and they try to erase the memory of everyone in Chicago. So they go back to try and save them. Sorry if I got anything wrong but overall it was an amazing movie.

One thing I liked about the movie were the fights in it. The fights are detailed to perfection and it looks like the fight is actually real! Another thing I liked was the whole plot for all three movies. They all worked together and flowed together nicely. The whole set of movies is a great series to watch.

I give this movie a 5 star rating.

So that was the post for this week and I'll see you guys next week.
