Outta This World!!

Today was the day I was going to see my friends for the first time in two weeks. Today was the day I was going to LEARN about a new topic. My mind was in focus and we walked to the hall for our Immersion Assembly. This term our theme was SPACE!

 In case you don’t know what that is, it is an assembly at the beginning of every term at our school when our teachers dress up in crazy costumes and do items or make movie. All of this is based on one theme, Our THEME for the TERM!! This helps us get started.

 Back to the Assembly! First it was Team 1’s movie and then Team 2. That was my personal favorite! Mrs Tuala, Ms She, Ms Glaze and Ms Blake were dancing to a funky and fairly modern Space song. Robotic movements won the crowd in the hall over! I was speechless. “ Who are those FREAKS!!??”, I asked Tyla, sitting next to me. “Obviously, their teachers from another planet!”, she then replied.

 It was then time for three more items. This Immersion Assembly was AMAZING and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us next year!!

Fun Badminton!!

It was Thursday. It was time. I rushed to be the first in the line. We then went to our brown, clean, soon to be fun filled hall. I saw our instructor. Her name was Lorene. She was a PRO at the sport we were going to play. She was going to be our instructor for all the days we were going to come to badminton. When my got my racket, I grasped onto it, it was my first time mastering the art of badminton. I held onto my short, sea coloured blue and white racket. Badminton is a sport of technique and speed. It’s kind of like tennis, but even BETTER!! For this UNIQUE sport, there are long and short rackets. Sometimes it is tricky to aim. The harder you hit, further the shuttle soars in the air! Of course, the shuttle TECHNICALLY has wings!! Our first activity was hitting the shuttle. Wait a minute. Do you know what a shuttle is? It is the thing that you hit when you play badminton. It has about 12 feathers on top of the base, the weighted rubber end. Anyways, moving on!! I threw this bird look alike into the air. We had to see how many times we could hit it. I tried to hit and....... MISS!! I was raging with ANGER!!!!! I knew I could do it with just perseverance and determination. Next thing you know, I have a volley of hits. I was proud. On our next activity, we had to pick a partner. You might think this easy, but trust it is NOT! We had to the shuttle to each other........................................... UNDER OUR LEGS!! Lorene said it would be easier if you closed your eyes, but trust me, it works. After that, it was cone catching time. It is when you get a cone, a shuttle, a partner and of course, a racket! You or your partner hit the shuttle to each other. The other person has to catch it in the cone. I don’t mean to brag, but, I think I was a PRO at that one!! I caught that little bird!! We had a few more activities, then we went back to class. I LOVE badminton and I know that me, my friends and everyone else in the world has a unique talent! I think my NEW talent is BADMINTON!!!!!
