Homework Challenge 4

P5. Compete in a sport for an entire season
For this homework challenge I am competing in Hockey for an entire season.
I have had 4 hockey trials and finally on Friday we found out our teams, I waas hoping to get into the B team but then I found out that there was 5 teams there was 1 "A", 1 "B" and 3 "C's" so when I found that out I thought that I would defiantly get into one of the "C" teams. But when the results came in Rimu house was at swimming sports, so when we came back at lunch time the first thing I did was run the to library wall and check what the teams were, I then saw my name! oh My Gosh I was thinking to myself, I GOT INTO THE B TEAM!!! Wow I was and still am so proud of myself!

Homework Challenge 3

E7. Design your own challenge - Go down further in my right and left splits and gold them for longer.

To achieve this I have been practicing my splits every day and night. I am down in my right splits, I am just working on holding it for longer but for my left splits I need to work on going down further and holding it for longer. My estimated time for achieving this is about 1 term but we will see how long it has taken me when achieve this challenge.

Here are a couple of pictures:

I am also in choir. I really enjoy singing especially with a group of people. I really like learning new songs and then doing the music festival  The theme this year for choir is Summer. So we are doing songs like summer time and summer holiday. I really like those songs.
