Tennis with Pete

Today was our first day of practice for tennis, so we went down to the courts to have practice with coach Pete. He teaches us how to play tennis, his first instruction was to practice some drills. Then we had to stand near a racket and practice hitting the ball towards our  opponent, then when he says switch! we change to give the other person turn. After all that practice we start playing a game of tennis. It was coming towards the end of our session so once we finished we said good bye to coach Pet, and looking forward to seeing him next Tuesday.

Skip Off

On Monday 24 September all of Ruapotaka school had gone down to the courts to watch each class perform their skipping  display that they've been practicing for weeks. When we arrived there I saw a of couple parents sitting down to support and watch their their child perform.

When it was our turn we had to hurry because it was going to rain. Luckily we had enough time to do our display before it rained but the sad part is when we didn't have enough time for the skip off.

It was a fantastic day, I was happy that Pupuke represented our class in the finals and how he came second place.
