They practice and practice in until they got ratty. Zack,s Parents went to Josh and Nathan,s house.

Cross Country

Last Friday, we had Cross Country. Mr Burt took the year five boys to the reserve, it was a bit muddy on the grass. We couldn`t go first because the girls had to go before us. 

When we were running it was a bit sloshy and wet. There were puddles that my shoes got caught in when we were running on the path.

It got a bit freaky when I got to the creek. There was a lot of mud and a long river. I nearly fell down on the mud. The part that I didn't like was going down and going up the stairs in the creek. When we went out of that first lot of creeks, there was another lot.

When I got to school people were cheering for their house colours. I hung out with some of my friends, telling them what they came but they didn't know what they came.

I didn`t come first, I came seventh, but I really enjoyed that Cross Country!

Hidden Gold Medal

Nick Wills was a middle distance runner whose Bronze turned into a silver by an upgrade. This is because of steroids taken by Rashid Ramzi from the Beijing game. Rashid Ramzi was coming second but he tested positive for steroids. Nick wills said, “Valerie adams worked hard to get that gold medal”. 

The people of belarus said Nadzeya was still winner in their eyes. Valerie adams wanted to have a proper Ceremony, in ether  Eden park, South Auckland or the Cloud.

Valerie Adams

Last Night Valerie Adams didn't win a silver medal for shot put, because this Russian lady was cheating. Her name was Nadzeya Ostapchuk. She was from Russia. New Zealand's team chief told Valerie Adams that Silver had turned into gold.

I think that Valerie Adams deserved that gold medal because of her hard work from the past.
