The First Rugby Ball

 

Do you want to know how Rugby balls made??? If you do this is a  story you won’t forget.

Soccer balls were made by a raw Pig’s Bladder that also holds the              urine .Pretty disgusting I know I thought that too! They are all  different sizes because Pig’s are. The olden Rugby balls were very  unhygienic and also had a yuck smell as well.

Let me tell you how they played Rugby in the olden days.They didn’t! They played Soccer like me. Rugby didn’t come along until... William Webb Ellis was in High School.In his High School,they were playing a game of soccer and then he disobeyed the rules and picked the ball and then ran with it and scored a try

Firewise

Did you know that fire alarm are not being used properly...why? Well read this article.


Have you ever wondered if your fire alarm is working???
You should because 90% of people do not have working smoke alarms & 10% Do!!! So that is a BIG difference.Also did you know that most fire alarms expire between the age from five to ten years,so if you have had your fire alarm for more than that age you might need it to maybe buy a new one.


You should make a fire plan in-case if a fire does occur. Then you will have a escape plan,but make copies and put them in every room in the house because if you are trapped you will have an escape plan with you...

When you are in a fire you will need to get down,get low & get OUT FAST!!! After you get out you need a safe place to hide and get to.When an adult gets there tell them to ring 111 or if they are not get to your neighbours house & ask them.

Now I feel good that people are using them now.




Here is a video I made on Hyperstudio...Sit Back And Enjoy The Show!!!

Apes

Do you like Apes? I do,that is why I am writing about it.

Well,did you know when Apes fight they usually get their fists and just hit the stomach unless... I don’t know actually... But what I do know is apes can open their mouths very very wide? Here’s a picture of an animated ape opening his/her mouth.


I’ve got this from The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

Cross Country

“Dah Donk,Dah Donk” went my pounding heart. I was anxious because it was the 10 yr olds to start their Cross Country race. Here was the good part, I was in it! I’m actually nine but my birthday is 4 days away in September. I said to my dad before cross country... “I might lose because I only came 5 or 6th last year”
“It doesn't matter,” he replied, “But you should still do your best.”

I kept his words in my head and got back into game mode. Mrs Garden lined us up into a curved line and put the fast people in the better end because they can run uphill.
Mr Burt shouted “On you marks, Get set........Go!!!” I blasted off with a energy boost and past everyone in front of me, until Lorenzo Kelly Brown shot passed me. It was funny because I was coming 1st then he overtook me and I moved into 2nd place and we did that althroughout the race.

During the race we ran uphill into a little track where it was just shells and rocks. You had to follow the track until it got you to a bridge which lead you through a forest full of trees. When I looked ahead I could see Tamaki College. Miss King was there and told us to go left and that lead us back onto the track again and we followed this until we came to the finish line.

Eventually I came 2nd I felt good because it was still a huge improvement instead of coming 5 or 6th. My dad was very proud and my mum as well.

I like Cross Country because it can be fun especially if we have no accidents and we didn’t.

Badminton

Do you ever feel like you just want to just get out of the house or classroom??? If you do,I think you better read this Story...

Once I walked into the hall I saw rackets,shuttles and also a lady. My friend Jacob,he knew what we were going to do. Before I could even think of what we are going to play,that lady I was talking about, well She said “ Hello kids,my name is Lorene and I will be taking Badminton lessons for a few weeks” I looked at Jacob and he had a very happy face, because he knew how to play Badminton.

As all of my class got a racket and one shuttle,Lorene said “ Okay,the first activity we are going to do is I'm going to show you how to hold a racket and how to serve ” I said to myself “I think I'm going to be pretty bad at this” “ You hold the racket with one finger on the front and make a tight ferm grip around the racket with the other fingers” “Now we are onto serving,It’s easy, you just hold your racket against your Puku (Stomach) and the shuttle, but you have to hold the shuttle with two fingers and hit!”
“ The Next game were going to try is to keep the shuttle up in the air” I thought to myself “ This is gonna be easy peasy “ Actually it was easy,but not until we had to play Badminton Soccer. This is a game of hitting the shuttle in the air and make it land into the goals post. My partner was Jacob”I thought that he will beat me at this”So as Lorene said the WORDS I got ready, “GO” I hit the shuttle to Jacob and he was put off by my handsome beauty nah just joking, and after it finished I won.

I really love Badminton because It’s really fun and enjoying, it just gets you out of the classroom or house! I think I get it from my Dad because it he is a very good Badminton player!!!

Here is a video of badminton....
