Rugby League - Interschool.

Today was the Rugby League Inter schools. This wasn't an usual tournament because there was only 3 teams including us. The teams were Pt England, Sylvia Park, and Panmure Bridge. Instead of playing the team once we played them twice. We were hoping to at least win two of our games which we did. Our first game was against Sylvia Park. We made meters and broke the deference line. At the end we won making it 4-3. We had a bye then we versed Pt England. Pt England had a big team, but that didn't change our hopes of giving up. We did good on attacking but we lacked defense and lost 7-2. We were the only team out of Sylvia Park and us to score against Pt England which we were happy about. Our third game was against Sylvia Park. We communicated to each other on defense and won the game 7-3. Our last game was against Pt England. We tried to improve from our first game against Pt England. Our main focus was defense which we did pretty well on, but we missed some of our tackles. We attacked Pt England strong and at the end the score was 6-3. I was happy because I scored 2 tries (1 try against Pt England, and 1 try against Sylvia Park). Thank you to Mr Ogilvie for coaching and preparing us and also supervising us today And also thank to the boys who were in the team for supporting each other.

Cook Island Week

As part of celebrating Cook Island language week LS2 have been practicing basic phrases in Cook Island. To get better at pronouncing the phrases we used a site called Digital Dialects. On this site we were also able to learn the name of fruits and vegetables in Cook Island. After that we were to create a conversation with a partner in the Cook Island language. I did this with Julian. I found this task fun and interesting because I was able to learn a new language and have fun while doing it. To hear our recording click on this Link.

Tech - Food

Today we have returned to the cooking rooms to learn how to cook and be safe when in the kitchen. For today's session we made butter chicken. It was served with rice and it was amazing. Today I worked with Jeremiah because of the absence of both our partners. Firstly we diced the chicken into pieces. Secondly we fried the chicken while our partners finely diced the onions. After that we took out the chicken and fried the onions until they were translucent. We then added the butter chicken sauce, the already fried chicken, and 1 cup of cream. After adding them we let it simmer then turned the heat off when bubbles started appearing in the food. After this session we only have two sessions left until the next orientation

Careers - Being a rugby player

Today for inquiry we were finding out some questions about our future jobs. We were focusing on how much money we would get and if we would be rich. The highest amount that I went up to was $34k per year. That is a lot of money to get and earn. I found this job really fun because you can be very famous. This job will be the most good job for me because you can get a lot of money towards your family things. I found this job suitable for me because i've always wanted to be like a famous rugby player Sonny Bill Williams.
