Thursday

For the reflection this week we had to write about our Tuesday, because it was Dino day/ inter zone athletics day. But Athletics was cancelled, so now we had to write about our Thursday.

Well yesterday (Thursday) was my college orientation day. The day began at 9.15, i got there early i met up with some St Brigids girls and we played king. I met the dean for next year, he was really nice! We started off with the opening prayer from the head girl and the leadership team.  We got split into 6 groups and told that we had to do the scholarship exam! We had to do a English and Maths one English first then a break for some morning tea.

After the tests we went down to the gym! We played a game of Bench Ball and our team won all four games! The next game we played was Fat Mat Racing! The game is sort of a relay race with these huge mats that you would usually use for landing in high jump. What you do is to run as fast as you can an dive onto the mat and push it as far as you can then the next pair in your team goes, then so on from one end of the court to the next! Our team won all the games,, there was this one time when we  went in three's the two other people went and then a started after them and they had already dived on the mat, I tried to dive but I over ran it and face planted into the ground!

We also did R.E and Science in Science we got to make some colours experiment with electricity and do an experiment. The first one i did was creating colours with these chemicals (i think) we made blue, orange, yellow and green and i made brown by mixing all the colours together! I the other thing we did was POP! and experiment with acid and fire ( i think) It was really fun because it made a popping sound!

The day was really really fun and I cant wait to go to college next year!

Have you tried Fat mat racing before?
