Fighting To The Finish

Today we had the same task as yesterday but we got a different picture.


As you can see here there are two determined wrestlers who will fight to the finish.
The wrestler in the red is arm locking, while the one in the blue is struggling to get out of his position.
The man in the red knew that the the wrestler in the blue was not giving up so he put his strength to 100%.
Determined to pin his opponent to the ground.

The wrestler in the red has too much strength for the one in the blue so he is forced to tap out.

Bulls Eye

As the archer pulls his arrow back ready to release it into the air, his eyes are determined to make the point of his arrow land in the center of the target. He stands there waiting for the right moment to release the arrow. The archer is only focused on the target wishing that it will land into the centre. As the noise from the audience dies down the archer is positioning himself and the bow so his aim is accurate. If the archer gets his positioning right and he gets the arrow in the target he would be a champion.

London 2012 Olympics

London is hosting their third Olympics. Pretty amazing isn't it.  In this majestic city there is going to be marvellous venues holding the events for the Olympics. There will be a range of venues, some historic but some new.    

The last time London held the Olympics was in 1948. In the 1948 London Olympic games, Fanny Blankers-Koen a Dutch mother of two is best known for winning four gold medals. Sadly three Olympic games were cancelled in the past because of World War l & ll.

This years Olympics is going to have some returning champions who won medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In Beijing the USA won the most medals. The reason for these champions returning is because they want to defend their titles. Michael Phelps is one of them. He won 16 medals in a single games for swimming. Usain Bolt is a Jamaican sprinter and is also the fastest man in the world.

I really can’t wait until the olympics start. And when it does all of my support is going out to all of the New Zealand athletes

Brown Brother By Joshua Losefa

Joshua Losefa is a prefect who goes to Auckland's Mt Roskill school and the thing about him is that he made an amazing speech about being brown and explaining the stereotypes in people. It was an amazing speech and I hope he presents more.
