Recounts of Athletics at Tawhai School & Nothern Zone.

In shot put I was not scared because I havebig muscles. High jump was my least favouritebecause I am not that good at it. In sprints Ifelt scared because when the hooter went offeveryone started running. I came last but Iwas okay with it.By Nic, Year 3 Room 4  .

On Tuesday it was athletics day. I was excited at firstbut then when it was time for me to do the sprints I wasnervous. Luckily my sister and her friend cheered forme and I came first. I was in the finals and I camesecond because Killarney beat me. After that it wasmorning tea time, then we did the long jump and thevortex. After lunch I did the high jump and shot put. Ididn’t really like shot put and long jump because in shotput I kept getting a no throw and in long jump I got a nojump. I will just have to keep on practicing. By Cassidy Yr 2 Room4

It was athletics day at Tawhai School. Right after theroll we had to line up and head outside. I thought itwould be weird being outside all day because wehad to do no work ALL DAY!! We went to the fieldand sat down on the grass. We were the first groupto do sprints, I was very nervous. Just when she said“On your marks, get set” I felt like I couldn’t do it but Ihad to. I came 4th in the sprints, better than I thought.After morning tea it was long jump. In the lineRebecca and I made origami with the grass. I’m nota very good jumper but it was really good fun.By Marlena, Year 3, Room 4

Hi, my name is Ruby. I’m a year 5 and I am in Room 15. I’m going to be talkingabout the Tawhai School’s Athletics Day.First the year fives participated in the sprints. I came second to last but I don’tcare, as long as I had fun!Next I did the high jump. I jumped over the bar twice. Then they moved it up andthat was when I went wrong…I jumped onto the bar instead of jumping over it but Mrs Wheeler gave meanother try. When I tried again I ended up taking the whole bar off! So I got onepoint.After that I went to shot put and that was pretty good. The first try I threwand I got one point. The second try I threw I got a two so in the end I got twopoints.Next I went to long jump and I kept getting disqualified for jumping over theboard so I ended up getting one point.Next I went to vortex. We got two chances to throw. The first time I got a one,the second time I got two points, so I got two points in the end.Finally we did the relays and our team came second, when it was my turn to run, Iwas sprinting my heart out!It was the best athletics day ever!By Ruby

Next it was year four girls shotput but I didn’t take part in that. Then it was sprints and I competed in that but very sadly I didn’t get a placing in that. After it was long jump, I competed in that, with long jump I came nothing but I did get quite a lot of sand in my shoes. Next it was vortex, I did not take part in that. After was highjump I didn’t take part in that also. Now it was time to eat then to go.
