Touch Rugby

Every Thursday we've been having touch lessons with this tutor Trevor for 3 weeks.

For the first 2 weeks he taught us how to plant the ball, make sure to put your hand out before you get touched (so you stay onside) and pass it once you pick it up (after it has been planted). After all that hard, tiring work we played a few passing and running games such as rat & bunny. The last week was mean/cool/amazing/fantastic, because all we done was gather up all our skills and played touch straight through.

It was sad that we had to go because that was the end of the lessons.

Michael Joseph Jackson

For writing this morning we had to write our favourite singer, band or musician. Here is my introduction.

Someone way beyond amazing had a bright career in front of himself, his name is Michael Jackson. To me Michael Jackson is one of the best singers in the world and he’s like Whitney Houston but a little better (to me that is). He is like this kind of guy who goes with the flow, or in other words takes it nice and smooth.

Baby born without brain!

Two year old baby Aaron Murray was born without most of his brain. The doctors told his mother that there was no way that he could survive because he only had the tiniest part of the brain.
