Tennis

This week was our second week of tennis with Peter, our coach. This week we learnt how to volley which is when you hit the ball lightly so it can go back and forth without letting the ball hitting the ground. Together with our partner we played a few rounds and saw how long we could make the ball stay off the ground. After that we placed the ball on the edge of the net and started off playing like that. When we started to do that technique we counted how much times we won, like table tennis. I really enjoyed tennis this week and can't wait for another session.

Rhythm Interactive's visit to P.B.S

This week Johnny from Rhythm Interactive came to P.B.S and showed us how to play the djembe which is a African drum. Our theme was Together we can make a change. We listened to and followed a rhythm which was based on our theme together we can make a change. The whole school got a chance to play with the drums and LS2 helped the juniors. Johnny said if we can say it we can drum it. I found it interesting learning how to play the djembe because I've never played one before. I also found the name of the drum interesting because I've never heard of the name before. 

Athletics Day

After tech on Friday we participated in our school athletics day. I was in the blue team with other people from my class. There were many activities on athletics day such as the egg and spoon race and much more. One of my favourite activities was the sponge race which is when you get into a sack, hop to the parachute which you had to crawl under, get the sponge, jump over the high jump pole, soak the sponge into the water then repeat the whole thing again. After all the activities we had our lunch and had sausage sizzles. After having lunch we moved onto sprints. I really enjoyed athletics day since it was my first time.

For maths we have been creating a Family Menu to feed a group of 6 or 5 members. In my group I had Chavda, Florence, Alex and Nevaeh. We have created a google document that has each day of the week including the food that we will be having for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. In this task we were allowed to have 1 day of fast food. My group has chosen that we will McDonald's as out fast food, we have decided to have it on the last day of the week.

The real cost of owning a pet

This week we had a task where we looked at how much a pet would cost. In my group was Victoria, Florence, Fui and Nyjah. For this task we picked a Pomeranian and the information that we collected is above. The average weight of a Pomeranian is 1 kg-3 kg which is fairly light. The name of our dog is Bangtan Sonyeondan which was inspired from our favourite k-pop group, BTS. There is some information above of how much it would cost to own a Pomeranian.
