Kaikorai Valley College Sports Day

Anna Ollerenshaw —

On Wednesday the Senior Hub went to KVC’S sports day.

My favourite activity was football because we played a game that involves human sharks players and balls. We had to keep our ball from the sharks kicking the ball out. If your ball went outside of the cones you would be out. The last person in would be the king or queen

We did lots of cool activities but my favourite had to be orienteering. When we first got to the station the man gave us a map and a sheet to tick when we found one of the numbered bits of metal, he told us to partner up with two friends for the group so I decided to go with Will and James, the first bit of metal we found was number 57 on the bench next to the sandpit. After that we decided to go look for them inside the college grounds which was really fun because we got glimpses of what is inside the buildings and finding the numbers at the same time! I had a really great time at the Kaikorai Valley College sports day and I hope to do it again soon.

My favourite sport was lacrosse. You had to get a cacher. There were two goals and there was one goalie for each goal. We  got divided into two groups the bibs and the non bibs.  At first I was very confused of what to do but I got the hang of it. My best friend Lucy caught it she was the only one who caught it. Toby got the only goal. My team won the game. It was really fun.Thank you KVC.

We went by bus there and back. Every school tried out different kinds of sports. Like marching, touch, orienteering,  football, athletics, long jump, rugby, lacrosse, t ball and hockey.  My favourite one was probably orienteering because you got to go around the school and across a small bridge. If you looked down you could see a small stream running below. It was a beautiful sight. After we played the orienteering sport we had lunch. I sat with my friends and we chatted and ate at the same time. Then we carried on playing it was a big well planned day for us and for the teachers.

We played lots of different kinds of sports like touch, athletics, hockey, marching, football, orienteering, rugby and lacrosse, My favorite one was athletics because it had lots of different activities like long jump and hopping through a ladder with bare feet and you had to be careful because the middle part was plastic and you would put all your weight on the middle part and stand on it. Then we go to start the long jump.

When we went to KVC we had so many activities. My favourite one was marching it was our first activity. In Marching you have your hands in a tight fist and walk on spray painted lines. There are dances you learn. We learnt one, there were two groups. The two groups did a battle to see which group could do it best and they would win. My group won. We got to look at all the medals at the end of the session.
