9Badmington



One day a lady named Donna came to our school to teach us how to play Badmington. I’ve played it before, so I think it would be easy but I realised it wasn’t.

Of course I needed to know the rules in Badminton, 1 rule is that you need to serve the Shuttle over the net. Another one is the the shuttle has to land on the opponents ground to win. And the last rule is if the shuttle hits the net your out.

When I picked up the racket Donna told me to put my thumb on the logo at the top of the handle. That helped me get better. If I wanted to hit the shuttle I would have held the racket nice and loose.

Striking the Shuttle wasn’t the easiest part of them all but it’s really funny when I miss. we learnt how to do a forehand, overhand and a backhand. Those are all the strikes I enjoy doing.

It was really struggling to hit the shuttle because I had to go side to side and back and foward.

New Zealand has a spectacular and diverse landscape, and a temperate climate.A lot of our lush rain forest,is conservation land, and protects our many native species. People in New Zealand are surrounded by oceans, because New Zealand is made up of islands.

Ireland RWC


This term our school has given a country for the RWC 2011 that we represent and it is Ireland. They are a tough team because their history is is about war. I have made a webpage about where they play and who they play.

Keep Your Eye On The Ball

I believe that the R.W.C in New Zealand would be great for NZ economically and socially because some of the money would go to help build up Christchurch and it would help our community of Pt England get better. So keep your eye on the ballNZ.
