I HAVE DONE 24 HOURS!
WOO HOO!
IT IS DONE!
I have finished the 20 hours of community service that we had to complete by the end of the year. I spent two or three afternoons a week at Little Ones Preschool helping out with the children. It was very handy for me as then I just had to ride my bike home as I usually do from school.
I enjoyed spending time with the little kids and even though I have completed my 20 hours I will still continue with some more hours but now the pressure is off and I don't have to worry about it any more. I will just keep on plugging away at it and then maybe, I'll get 30 hours done?!

Martial Arts.
I do Martial arts for my hobby.
I started doing martial arts because of last year, when the year 7 and 8 girls did the self defence 6 week long course and I really enjoyed that. So for my hobby, I decided to do martial arts and I really enjoy it and I now have a new friend called Casey, she is an orange belt, level 3.
I'm a white belt at the moment, but the next grading is in August and so then I will hopefully pass and become a yellow belt.
I really enjoy doing my martial arts, so maybe I'll continue in high-school.

Clubs
On Friday the 27th, we started clubs.
My club is Green Team.
I chose this club because I like stuff to do with the environment. Mrs Allaway is the teacher who runs the Green Team and I really like her as a teacher.
On the first club day, Nannet, who is Lachy's grandma, was in Piawaka. I got chosen to go with her and so did James J and Sophie P.
We made some mice.
I thought that these would be for the scarecrow, but no, we got to keep them!
They were so cute when we finished them! Dad said it looked reilistic that night.
I enjoyed the company of the younger kids and Nannet.
Also the friendly atmosphere was nice, and in general, nice people and activities, sad that I will miss next week's club afternoon because Year 8's are doing the WPCA High-Ropes day. :(
My goal for the next 4 weeks of clubs is to create some environmentally awesome creations. And enjoy what I make and put loads of effort into my work!

ANZAC presentation.
Do you want to know more about the Anzac's? Have a look at this awesome video! :)
This video covers: what the soldiers ate, the trenches, what they had to deal with and their daily life.
This is the screen castify of my ANZAC presentation. It is the screen-cast so make the sound is on, it is quite loud anyway so you should be fine.

It took me awhile to make so I hope that you learn something new! :)

X-country.
It was Thursday the 18th.
Today was X-country. I was to run 3km.
My goal was to not walk or stop,
I achieved that goal, and none of the boys passed me!
As soon as we got down to the domain, I was overwhelmed by a feeling of butterflies playing rugby in my stomach.
As the day went on, those butterflies turned into pigeons playing sky rugby in my stomach. Finally, it was 2:35pm, time for me to race. The year 8 girls lined up at the starting line, ready, set, GO! The clappers are the worst part of the race, being so loud and scarily close to your ears. They were off, haring away like there were being chased by wolves. I, on the other hand just gently jogged down the track like a hunter waiting for its prey to trier itself out.It turned quite hot while I was running, and that made me quite hot and tired even more.
While I was running, this thought kept on coming back up to the surface of my brain; you never have to do again. Just keep running! You never have to run this step again, or this step, or this one!
And it was nice to see mum and dad when I ran past the corner they were standing at. :) I finished my run with a sprint to the end and I'd come 8th. Second to last, but that doesn't matter. It was over! Finally, no more running! Well, at least until term four, then we do athletics. :(
The track I had to run was like this; around the bottom, up the top, going up to the top is where I passed Haylley and stayed in front of her until the end, she came 9th,
down into the forest, around the bottom and around the bottom again without the extra paddock.
I didn't enjoy having to do X-country, I never do!
But, at least I NEVER have to do it again!
At least, I don't think so...
