2nd Netball Session
Netball was so amazing.
Today we learnt about stepping in netball and how to get rid of the attacker.As we learnt, we played a game using chest passing. We were so into the game we were screaming our lungs out.
Learning new things in netball was really high spirited.I hope I learn more about netball, next time.
1st Netball Session
As we ran with our exciting faces to the court, we met a lady from the Kiwisport to give us some tips on Netball.
We started with a warm up because everyone was too excited about playing netball for the term, we ran with laughter.
My favourite learning session was when we had a game at the end. The aim of the game was to run and grab the the ball from the centre of the court and run back to your team.As you run you had to use your Cheas Passing skills to pass throughout your team members.As you fininsh passing to your team members you would have to run back to the center of the court and throw the ball back to the hoop.
At the netball session I learnt heaps about Chess Passing with the ball and how to increase the level of speed of the ball.
I can’t wait till the next session.

The Caravan Experience
Today at school our principal got us an amazing experience on how to improve the sustainability of stopping the world from pollution. At the caravan we lean't how to stop the world from polluting the ozone layer and how to improve the pollution.
At the caravan we looked at the distance we travel from home to school and how much pollution we make from that?.
In the hall we learn about E-Wise.We learnt about wasting the goods. Like for example a computer desktop.Inside the desktop it’s got Gold, Silver and Copper.
Learning more about the earth makes me think about the future and how are we going to make the future a better place for our family.

Learning How To Ride A Bike
Before you ride a bike
You have to check:
- You’ve got to check the BRAKES
- The brakes are in the front of the handes.
- Next is the Wheels
- As you check the wheels, you had to see if the tread of the wheels were still there.
- After that is Bolts
- You check the bolts by looking at the First Release.
- Last of all is the Reflectors
- Reflectors are really important, especially when you're on the road.
- To see if the reflectors working you’ve got to shine a light at it from a distance.
J.S taught us about what we’ve got to wear when riding a bike.
- On your feet you’ve got to wear closed shoes.
- On you legs you’ve got to wear shorts. If you were baggy pants then you could roll them up or rubber band them.
- To wear on top you would have to wear a bright coloured shirt.You also have to wear a reflectors jacket.
Next he told us about how to put on our safety helmets
- To put on your helmet you had to, lower down your hair, because it would not be safe for your head, if it was knocked to the ground.
- Last you’ve got to tighten up the ropes. You’ve got to make a letter y on the left and on the right you’ve got to use a letter v.
The Practical
“Finally the time has come” as I stand nervously.
As new beginner's Gemima and I went down to the juniors to learn how to ride a bike.
As we learnt we found it hard to turn the bicycle. As we finished our first trial we went to J.S to find out some tips on how to turn your bike.
He gave us a demonstration. To have a nice turn you would have to same some speed for your bike. Then you would have to use the speed to give a nice turn. As you turn you would have to put down the leg you turn to. Eg if you turned to the left then you put down your left.
On that day I learnt how to ride a bike.
As I ride on the road I will keep these tips in mind.
