My Season Haikus

Hot Summers day Haiku
On a day like this
I love to go to the pools
With my family


My Winter Haiku
Frosty misty clouds
Lovely cocoa in my hands
Snow is falling down

An Amazing Term of Sport

Term Three was an amazing term of sport for me.  I competed in many events and codes.
I will try to remember all of them to share in this post.

My Girl's rugby team came second in the Champion of Champions.
My team came third in our A Grade Netball competition played every week after school on Tuesdays.
We came 4th in our first ever Hip Hop competition.
My team came first in our interzone Rippa Rugby Competition.

And when our team won the Grand Final of the Auckland School Girls' Rugby Competition on Eden Park, I decided it was time to write a post about it!

After a long term of training it all came to an end with the Grand Finals being held at Eden Park.
There were six schools competing and we had to make it through to the final round.
We played against Viscount girls' team, who we had beaten in the first round, but we were feeling nervous.

In the first minute or so Viscount scored the first try.  But that didn't stop us from winning.
If you look at the final score - 35 to 15, you can see that NOTHING could have stopped us.

It was a great day!
