#Classified

Today is the day that we do Classified. We have to Skype a moostery school and find out their school name, island, region and address. We asked them our first question and it was "are you on the South Island" and we managed to get it correct. That means we figured out their island. Then we asked " Are you in the south land region?" and it was correct on our first try. So that means we guessed their region. Then we started guessing what they are near and then we asked if they were on/near highway 6 and it was correct again. We then figured the closest one was probably Limehills School. Yay, we guessed their school name so that means we have won the classified challenge. Limehills School just need to guess our school name so we carried on until they guessed that our school is Ormiston Primary. At the end we all had fun.

What we figured out was that they are on the South Island, South Land region and their school name is Limehills.

Today was just another day. IExplore was today's first thing to do. I was feeling kinda tired because I went to bed a bit late but I like iExplore so that won't stop me from getting one step closer to finishing my iExplore with my amazing buddy Ved. We managed to finish our VideoNot.es.😃

Swimming Fun

On every Monday, all the year 3-7 go to Otara Swimming Pools and get trained by professionals how to swim and get better at it. I was feeling pretty confident to swim. Before we got to swim we had to do some test so they could see what group we are going to be in. There were three groups, group one, group two and group three. I got into group 3 and we were first doing freestyle to see how far we can swim. In my opinion I think I did okay. Next time I could probably try breathing more and I really hope I can achieve that goal.

Soccer History

Today was history. My school OrmPS played in a soccer (or football) tournament with multiple other schools. We had two teams, one was a year five group and the other was the year six team (which I'm in). The learning coaches that were supporting us was Mr. McNeil and Mr. Dyer. Our first game was unlucky but it's not bad because it was our first game. I started as sub and I was feeling normal as usual but once It's my turn to go on the field I got shot with nervousness because I didn't know what to do as a defender. But eventually I got the hang of it. Time for the last match. I was now confident since I knew what to do for defender so I didn't panic. But it turns out that I'm not defender. When I got called onto the field I was striker and once I heard that I tried to stay calm. I was in luck because even If I failed we could still win because if they score, we would still have one more point than the other team and also we have a good player(or friend) that was mid-field which is basically like a striker and he could score some goals. We managed to win which was a great achievement for OrmPS. We had a mini celebration at the end. My next step would be to get better at every position at soccer.
