Athletics

In week 2 2013 term 4 te pahu school held an athletics day inviting paterangi school this was a series of 6 events shot put discus sprints hurdles long jump and high jump. My favourite event was discus in this I threw 13:57m 12:32m 14:67m I came 2nd by 10 cm Benc came 1st. The challenge of discus is keeping straight when it's flying without it wobbling. In sprints my rival is Ashton we are the same speed when we lined up I was nervous because I wanted to beat Ashton. It is time, take your marks, set clap we were off unfortunately he came out in the lead and stayed in the lead. He won by 10m this was disappointing knowing that my rival bet me. In my day that was about the only down thing other wise the day was great.

Ag day

On wednesday 16 october tepahu school had there ag day it was a time when the students got to show leadership, responseibility and inovation. the students got to show off there pets or there alternitive challenge all the people i asked said one of the most challenging thing was to get there pet moving. and the most challenging event was leading because the lamb would get spooked or start eating grass. in rearing i think the hardest thing was to remember the poinsnus plants and the 5in1 diseases i only remembered five they were polpykidney, black leg, blackdisease, teatnus.as proven the hardest event was leading but there was a lamb kid or calf that would stand out the alternitive challenge was a home challenge and a school challenge this was when the students had to show inovaation to create something new and exciting. all the fun on ag day was in the classes were they were creating clay models, cupcake decarations or they could decarate thre own shirt. the pta put on a great with organising the food and the rings. the food they put on delicious. with out the pta there would have been no agday so i would like to thank the pta of tepahu school.
