Rugby Skills with Andrew Goodman

On Friday, Andrew Goodman came to school to teach us some rugby skills. He is a Tasman Mako. He tought us the grubber. The grubber is a little kick across the ground. Jay, Levi, and I got in a big triangle and did some grubbers. Then he tought us a punt. The punt is a huge kick in the air. We got in a big triangle again and did some punts. I kicked to Jay and it got in the soccer goal instead of the tryline. Hahaha. Then we played rippa rugby. I was the team captain for the Highlanders, my favourite team. Levi was the team captain for the Crusaders and Carlee was the team captain for the Chiefs. First, it was the Highlanders vs. the Crusaders. The Crusaders won. So it was the Crusaders vs. the Chiefs. But the Chiefs won. So now it was the Highlanders vs the Chiefs. It was really tough but we won.

Time for the second round. The Crusaders were hard to handle but it paid off because we won again. We were doing well. The Crusaders did well again and they won - the Chiefs took a beating from the Crusaders. But it was a pay back because we smashed the Crusaders. So then it was the FINAL game. Highlanders vs. the Chiefs. It was rough but it was a nice win. Lets look at the score board. The Highlanders came first, the Crusaders came second and the Chiefs came last.

Book Week at Nayland Primary

This week there is a book fair at our school and the topic is on animals. A book fair is when there is a whole lot of books for Mum's and Dad's to look at. Mums and Dad's look at them to buy them for their children. On Friday there is a disco at Broadgreen Hall.We can dress up as our favourite book character like Peter Pan, Old McDonald or Lightning Mcqueen. A disco is when you DANCE awesomely and you get the groove in you. This is a tip: dance awesome. At the disco, we will wear the costume we wear to school on Friday. Also, we have an animal photo competition. You have to take the photo by yourself so if you are in the photo you can not enter it in. That is sad but hopefully lots of people enter some great photos!!!!.
