League Tournament


Today was the day,that we all got to go and play league at the dunkirk reserve for the tournament against four other schools.When we got there,the first thing we had to was to get changed and get ready for our first game.

As I was running late to our Rugby tournament I suddenly remembered that our first game was going to be against team 1 that were going to the school pt england too,but the dumb thing was that I had to wait for the next game with stan hope.

When we all left to go back to school I was relieved because my shoulders and legs were hurting from all the tackles and running all the time for three whole games plus when we had to go walking back to school.

Our Trip In 2011

During Tuesday we all woke up and got ready for the day. All of us had to go to my uncle's house where they will be having the meeting about the family holiday trip. We were going to visit my nana’s grave up north with all my other buried family.

But before we got there the first thing we did was stop at Mcdonalds in G.I for breakfast.We were all hungry because we had just  got our money on Christmas eve and were able to buy  food.

When we got up north the first thing we did was go and say hi to my nana’s side of the family.Then when that was over and done with we all went out and played a little bit of PS3 and played touch outside at the park with my cousin and uncle.

A week has past now so it was time to say our goodbye's and and time to go home so we can check on our house that was getting looked after,it was sad because we were all going to miss each other and hope that we could come back next time.

The Three Jamaicans In The 200m Race


“WOW,” there were some of the fastest runners in the countries I have ever seen in my life. With among the Olympic competitors in the 200m race, There was three Jamaica's, Usain Bolt, Yohan Blake and the third runner Warren Weir.

Warren Weir, was the third competitor from the Jamaican team that ran in the 200m race.He   won Bronze medal. He is a 22 year old man who would like to be just like Usain and Yohan because they are the fastest runners and he always dreams to be like them.

In the London Olympics, in the 200m race there was a 22 year old Jamaican who came second place who won the silver to try and be the best runner there ever was.I think all he wanted to do was to make his country proud and happy.

Man, Usain Bolt,sure is the fastest man that I have ever seen run in 2012 in the 200m race.In the Olympics,he also took first place out of all the Jamaicans in the whole world and even set the world record that is one of the best times there is for him and his fellow comrades.

When they were about to start the race,straight away I knew that the first place winner was going to be the greatest runner,Usain Bolt because of all the matches that he’s won over the past 4 years and on ever since he started the running event at the Olympics.

The Olympic Rings



The five basic colours blue, black, red, yellow, and green are boring just like the  five basic shapes that look just like circles, however the countries that these colours symbolize is a different story.Which are the Africa's, America's, Asia's, Australia, and last but not least the Europe.

"What is the reason for the rings interlocking. You say? well let me tell you about it."  When the rings are locked together it’s a sign that means that the countries join in one place and battle it all out in the Olympics in order to win the medals Gold, Silver, or Bronze for their country.

Why are the Olympic rings circles.? I always seem to ask myself that question, until now when I went and searched all over the net and found out that the reason why they are the shapes of circles is because five continents join their hands together and play against each other.

In 1914 Baron Pierre De Coubertin was the founder and designer of the rings that represent the Olympics today, he was also the one who discovered the countries that 
the rings symbolize in the Olympics and he did the same thing with the 20th anniversary.

I think the reason for the choosing of those colours was because in 1984 there was a guy called Robert Barney who discovered that in ancient times they used circles and the colours that we use now.

Weekends



"Cool” we all said once we heard that we were going to have a BBQ and a party to celebrate my uncles farewell because he was going to Australia to live, it was fun when we had all our family coming to my house with all of my cousins for the weekend until the day they left for Melbourne.

Later on that day we started to hear heaps of cars coming down the driveway and the roads. Our garage would fill up until some people had to drink outside of the place, while our uncles were preparing the food and the table.

“Oh that sucks" we said, because a few of my aunties and uncles had to go home and make sure that their baby was alright with their babysitters. But it was still fun when they came over and had the party with all of us.

As everyone went home I thought about the fun things we did together and hoped that we could do this again with all our family soon.
