Running Cross Country 2012

Just minutes away from the  annual occasion the school cross country. My group age (The 12 year old boys) got ready to run the course. This is going to be one of the hardest and grueling events ever in Pt England School.

Ready.... Set..... Go!!, as the 12 year old boys were jogging lightly down our school field. Splash!!, “OH NO” my shoes were sucked in strongly from the thick boogie greasy mud. As my shoes first hit the mud I felt stink because I knew straight away something bad was coming my way. The thick gooey mud smelt like poop all around the place.
Struggling to balance as I was wobbling side to side trying to pull my shoes out of the mud. I barely made it through the quicksand but my shoes were overloaded with the gooey mud. I will just imagine what my mother would say when I get home with dirty shoes.

Covered in mud from head to toe, I was glad to see the finish line when I hit the final turn. Struggling to accomplish the race as I was one foot in front of the other trying to hold off my challenger. Crossing the line, with feet burning I was completely exhausted as I collapsed in a heap. After the race I noticed that I have transformed from being a human to being a pig covered all over with thick greasy mud.  


“Yesss!!!” Finally, just a few steps away from ending the hardest event that I thought was endless.

Visiting The Life Education

This term we have been visiting harold and we have learnt loads of things about making good choices. I have learnt that if you make bad choices it can lead you to very bad consequences. I have watched very sad and bad things that happened to people in the caravan  that didn't care about their body and didn't take charge of themselves , they have chose to keep on doing what they do all because of an addicting thing, Smoking. Smoking can cause very bad things in your life that wouldn't be necessary.


 After all of the horrifying things I have learnt, I have chose to make the right choice and keep my body healthy. I hope that in the future I don’t change my mind about this because this is quite serious. Healthy and good choices will be in my mind for ever.
  So, start making good choices and keep ourselves healthy. If you want to live long live it good.

30th Olympiad

It is the 26th -  just 1 day away from the 2012 opening of the olympic games in London.

London will be the first county to have ever hosted 3 olympic games. It first hosted the olympics in 1908  then 1948 and now hosting the  2012 olympic games. London is a very majestic and modern city to go to with a lot of history. Well known locations like the Big Ben clock tower and Buckingham  Palace are the backdrops for many of the venues.

All time winning gold medalist Michael Phelps is going in to are very tough swimming tournament hoping to win his 15 gold medal in the 100 meter freestyle. Also the world's fastest sprinter Usain Bolt in a challenging spot with fast sprinters running partner Yohan blake, and american, Tyson Gay. I wonder who will triumph?

The events  that I am looking forward to in the 2012 London olympic games are the 100 meter, 200 and relay race, and hoping that my favorite team jamaica with the fastest man in the world Usain Bolt and team partner Yohan Blake will take out the gold medals for Jamaica.
