Mini Olympics

Rotation started,everyone in different lines had split into different directions making a huge stampede of kids. Pt England Students from Team 4 and 5 gathered towards the hall. Nobody knew what was going on, especially me coming late.  But eventually our principal had announced that we were going to have our own mini-version of the Olympics. Lining up quickly into four lines,frustrated leaders yelling and screaming to tell their team mates to get into proper straight lines. 

The rotations began everybody had moved different directions. I asked what we were doing with an unknown glance. They had explained that we were doing mini-olympics.What is mini-olympics? I asked myself. This thought was on my mind the whole time. I didn't know what I was doing so I went and asked Mr Burt and he advised me to go to the street with Mr Slade. His activity was Jump Jam. Which was sort of cool. Copying what this guy was doing, there were kids that were already sweating.

Next rotation finally caught up with the group that I was supposed to be in. Te Arawa 2, Matthew T had lead the group towards the hall for the next activity. Mr Burt had begun a relay activity. First we started of with a ball in between the legs just pass the knees. It was really hard because we had to get the ball to the other side into the bucket without dropping it. Hopping and hopping, kids kept on drooping the ball. It was funny for a while but then everyone stop laughing and started to encourage their team mates.

''Te Arawa 2 Maatatua 2 your next activity is.....in the Staff room with Mr Jacobsen'' Mr Burt had announced. As we walked into the room people behind me were laughing and playing around. As we sighted the playstation and the words SINGSTAR we all gasped and moaned seeing that they weren't that kind of person to do singstar. Unless they do it in their own time.

First competition was between Kevin and Knight. It was really funny because they were singing "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" by Whitney Huston. It was down to the last minute just catching up Knight had witness the power of nearly a tie. Eventually our arch enemy for that day had their victory.

At the end of all the different exercises,everyone gathered back in the hall to watch the news together. This was the most fun and exciting event ever. Hopefully we can do it again.
