Cross Country

Cross Country

Good Shepherd School had been busy training for cross country this term and finally the day arrived. In week 6 we all arrived at school in our running gear and had our house colours painted onto us. We were eager and ready to go and win house point. Overall the race was long and required a lot of stamina, but we were prepared. Here are some pictures from our races.

Swimming sports

Room 6 had a wonderful day at swimming sports. When we all went to the turf we split up into our houses. Thank you Sharyn and parents for helping us with the non competitive swimming and competitive. Also thank you parents for coming along and supporting your children. Good shepherd students thank the teachers very warmly, as every year as they set up and prepare this event for us. I’m sure that every student enjoyed the event. I saw everyone compete with my own eyes and they all did well. The people who lost don’t have to be sad because they should be grateful they got a swim in the warm weather also because there’s always time and effort to improve.

Athletics Day

Yesterday, we had athletics at the Three Kings. At Athletics, there was types of sport. There was Relays, Long Jump, Shot Put, Discus and Running Races. There was a lot of people that got 1st, 2nd and 3rd. And if they got any of the places (1st 2nd or 3rd) they will go to Eden Albert Athletics. When we did the 200m run for year 5, I got 4th. I didn't get much place in all of them, but it was fun. When we got back from Three Kings, we were tired, but the we got to go to the playground for a little bit but then we got back to work.

Bike Safety

Today on Thursday 25th, we did our bike safety course. The people who were teaching us were Bigfoot Adventures. They taught us stuff like how to put a helmet on with some extra stuff that were useful. They also told us that that the lever in the middle of the wheel needs to be tightened or else the wheel will fall off and, they told us that a bike must have a reflector at the bottom of the seat, the brakes must work and the wheels must be pumped. This is me riding a bike. When I first rode the bike, I didn't know how to ride a bike. But then I learned, I knew how to ride a bike.

After that I felt so happy! 

Cross Country

On Tuesday 5th June, it was Cross country!

Everyone was puffing and was tired but everyone did a good job!

Lots of people were cheering for me.

This is me running to the finish line.
