My weekend!!

 In my first day of my long weekend I went to An eye test with my mum and Lauryn. It was a Saturday I was excited to get an eye test because I get to know if I need glasses or not. We went there and we had to wait awhile. But then we got to my appointment then had to go in a small and dark room. There were these two things and they go on each eye.One of the machines had a hot air balloon and it takes x-rays of your eye or it takes a photo of your eye.The other machine it a x and the x has a dot and that takes photos or x-rays as well. And now I was finished with the first test then we had to go back in the waiting room we had to wait for around 10 minutes. They called my name and we went in another room. In the end I didn't need glasses

Athletics

last week on monday  we had to do Athletics I was really excited to do it. It was also really cold in the morning the year 

The year 8 girls started with high jump with the year 4 boys. I didn't do high jump because i'm not good at it and the pole was getting higher and higher my friend Lauryn wasn't doing it right she kept jumping under the pole instead going over. Then we got to go to long jump long jump is my favorite thing to do for      athletics. I was happy to move on from high jump to long jump because i think I'm good at it but this year i didn't do good I  got 3.80 and last year I  got 5.60. Then we moved to sprites. Sprites is also my favorite thing to do we all walked there and I was really excited to do it as well. There was the year 8 girls who started first then it was the year 4 boys we walked to the other end of the track there were two poles there and that was our starting line. I was in the first race with Charlotte,Clara,Lauryn,Kirsten and that's all i can remember. We all lined up for our race then we were off I didn't know who came first or second  or third I just ran and didn't see who was next to me.  It was really fun 

10 ways manners help the world go better

10 ways manners help the world go better

Having good manners is always a good thing in life because saying hello and then saying it back

Try and notice all the nice things people do for you and appreciate them for being nice and kind

And helping out others. Accept your own mistakes  and say sorry other wise in will turn into a bigger problem than it needs to be. Be honest it will make people trust you if you lie once then people would never believe you or trust you again. 

It helps people realize that people do things without thinking about what there saying or doing.

And making people wait for you and do stuff for you is not good manners because they shoulnt have to do anything for you thats your responsibility to do things for you

You should always never get into someones personal space and it may effect them in a different way then you think. Like kicking,punching or throwing things at people than just stop because youe getting into their bubble and thay wont like that.If you take someones things or hand it in and say sorry and never take there stuff again.

springbok tour 1981

 In 1981 a south African rugby tour known  in New Zealand as the springbok tour and in south Africa known as rebel tour. There was a opinion to protest across New Zealand and also extended to united states where the south African rugby team continued their tour after departing New Zealand. Apartheid had south Africa had made south Africa an international parish and other countries were strongly discouraged from having sporting contracts with it. Rugby union was and is an extremely popular sport in New Zealand and the south Africa known as Spingbok's were considered to be New Zealand's most formidable opponent's  therefore  there was a major split in opinion in New Zealand as to whether  politic's should influence sport in the way and whether the springboks be allowed to tour.
