Inter house swimming sports.

On wednesday we had the house champion swimming sports there were a few people from each classroom but for us being they only year 7 class in TK there were only children from our classroom.There were four races freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly I was in all of these races maybe not in the first heat every time but I feel I did good and so did the rest of the team.I was also in the relay I did freestyle but we didn't come first.Over all I think I did very good.Displaying 20140227_142145.jpg

Te Reo Conversations

I think the pronunciation of our group was a little bit rusty.
I think we did use the right words in our sentences.
I think we could have done a little bit better with our fluency.
We definitely had a lot of confidence.

In the last couple of weeks there have been news stories that the sochi winter olympics in Russia slopestyle snowboarding course has been unsafe and competitors are pulling out because they don’t want to get injured. I think that the competitors that are pulling out should give it another go because you still might have a chance to get a medal. One of the reasons they should keep going is because they don’t want to let their sponsor down because the sponsor might decide to stop supporting them and go to another athlete. Another reason I believe they should do it is for the honor of being an olympic medalist and representing your country. One of the reasons I think they should not compete is because they might sustain a life threatening injury that could end their career. But they should still give it a go because they could still win a medal! The people who say that they should pull out I think they are wrong you should try and persevere and don’t let your team down.
