We arrived in Craigswood and we got split in to 3 different equal. We went to this sporting event on the 1st of November 2012.
Team 5 started with the javelin throwing. They started by practicing their throwing by throwing an invisible javelin. Then they went on and threw a foam javelin at the wall. After that they went on and had a competition to see if they could get past the 15 mark. Abby Clinkscales , Jason Smith and Craig Thomas performed well in the javelin.
Then they went to a standing jump part. Cieran Taylor, Tom Buist and Dana Russell were all getting over the silver line that they had to. Cieran Taylor just got over the line and he said, “it looks so easy but it is really hard.”
Then they went to the foot jump. Abby and Starr just went so fast it was unbelievable! The score to beat was 60. On Star’s first turn she got 59 (so unluckyL). Mrs Lloyd had to join in cause Cieran Taylor didn’t have a partner. Tom Buist got 60 after a few turns.
They went to a running part. Mrs Lloyd had to write down their scores. They went on to a relay race and got showed how to do it properly.
Then they went to hurdles. For a bit of fun they done boys vs girls and the girls kept beating the boys.
Last of all they went to a stamina test where you had to run and get one shuttle cock out of one hula hoop and then put it in the other one
At the end our relay girls team, Dana Russell, Abby Clinkscales, Shannon Smith and Debroah Hendry and the boys relay team Harvey Stenhouse, Harrison Spence, Craig Thomas and Tom Buist performed well and did Bankton proud.
Once all the scores were counted up, Bankton won the best school overall.
