Netball

Wow I was so excited when our class went to netball. When we started playing netball I was excited because we learnt lots of information and skills.

When Liz showed us some moves we first learnt how to pivot. We had to partner up with the person beside us. Once we had partnered up we had to get ready then had to pivot with the partner we were with. When Liz showed us more moves about pivot we had to run then defend the person that pretended to have the ball. Liz showed us lots of skills and I was nervous that I couldn’t do it.

When I went up I tried it out then gave the next person a turn. After we finished Liz told us that we had to play ball tiggy but the rules were we had to touch them with the we weren’t allowed to throw it at the person who never had the ball. The other thing was when we had to defend the other team weren’t allowed to hit us because the game was like netball.

When we played we were all excited and happy because the other team keep going for one person at a time some times when we played the game and we touch the out line then we would of been out. When we started playing Ball tiggy I was excited because I thought that ball tiggy was a good game to play out on the courts.

Holidays


In the school holiday's my friends and I went to the beach to have some fun. During the holidays when we went to the beach we had a quick swim then hopped out and got changed. After I finished having a swim I yelled out to Denim and told her that I was leaving. On my way home I kept looking back to see if they were keeping up. On the way home when I turned to Ropata Ave they were there before me.

When I went home I got changed. Then I came back out to see If Katrina and Paige were playing out side and waiting for me to go to the park. When we arrived at the park we all started to play on a spinning donut. After we finished playing at the park I wondered if they wanted to go to my house to have a water splash instead. Once I thought about that Katrina said to me "why not?"

So I went to go get changed and came out and a few seconds later we saw Denim go pass. When we saw her we asked if she wanted to have a water splash with us. After we asked her she replied back to us and said but i haven't got any clothes to wear so I said to her just wear that instead so she just grabbed a water bottle and splashed it every where around her. Then when she grabbed a water bottle and started chasing after me.

After she had finished I grabbed a bucket and filled it up and started chasing after Denim and threw it over her head. Then after she finished having a water splash she got changed then grabbed her netbook and started taking video’s of us. After we finished we were excited the first part of the water splash. When we finished we all talked to ourselves and said should we go to the library then we went there and played on the netbook for a couple of minutes then we went to the internet cafe to see if Katrina’s brother was at there.


When it started to get dark Katrina and Paige slept over my house during that time we had dinner. After we had our dinner we watched movies all night then fell to sleep.
