Rippa Rugby.


Hi. I'm Tayla. Last term I did a rippa rugby tornament on Wednesday. There were lots of other schools and teams that went too. We also had a year 3 and 4 team that went as well.
My day was awesome! We had lots of support there and we placed. I'm not sure what it was but we made it into the Bay of Plenty reps which was really, really awesome! The next week we went to our other tournament in Paengaroa to play against the best teams around New Zealand. When we were there, out of about 8 or 9 teams Selwyn came runners up for the silver plate. We also had support there. We had a very cool day and we went to school so proud. And that is my story about...
Rippa Rugby
The End!

School Playground



At Kaitao Middle School we have really cool playgrounds that you can climb on and over. People enjoy them alot and go on them every day and play games like tag and just go on the many activities we have.

Kaitao Middle School Health Room

At Kaitao Middle School we have a really cool Health Room, Students learn all about what it is to be healthy and all about pubutal change. We learn about managing your emotions, how to talk to each other and many other things.

Netball


I have a good experience in netball. I have been hoping that it will be a success and it has been because I have been playing for 2 years and it is cool. It has been hard because we have been facing all the A teams which let us down a bit because we have lost. We have been put down a lot and we have been thinking it isn't fair. My thing is sports because I can express myself and that is so cool. When I play sports I love particapating and contributing which is when I can express myself. I have a lot of friends that love sports too. One day I hope that I can have a future in sports. My teacher Matua Glenn started a club called the Sports Academy which has an amount of 24 students. That is cool because he likes sports too. We also had support.

Feijoa Trees



we just got some new feijoa trees they are growing well and there are no feijoas on them yet but the flowers are turning into buds. We cant wait to eat them when they are ripe.

Squash


At my school Kaingaroa Forests primary we have a cool game could Squash its fun and it will make you fit and make your body more agile. The rules for squash is, you have a partner, two racquet and one ball and then one person starts it off and then you start hitting the ball to the wall but if you miss the ball and it passes the line then that person is out. It burns off the fat around your body you sweat when you are hitting the ball becouse you really want to stop but you cant unless you get out and thats why every one likes it.



.....THE END.....

Skipping At Malfroy.


Every day me and my friends play skipping. We play before school at morning tea time and lunch time. It is fun to play we do single jumps and we play double dutch it is so easy to do. Sometimes it takes practise but we get used to it. Boys even want a turn but we say go and get your own skipping rope.
