Diana Isaac

By Anonymous -
A week or two ago I went to Diana Isaac, which is a rest home. I am in Homebase 2 but me and a few of my friends had to go with Homebase 3. Once we got there we went into a big room and we all sat down. In front of us was a housie board and a few counters. In the game someone would call out a number and if you have it on your board you would put a counter over it. If you got a row of 5 you win and the first 3 people who get a row win a small prize. Then we would keep our counters on and now you can only go for a full house which is when you fill up your whole board and again the first 3 people to get a full house get a bigger prize, like a chocolate bar. They were so kind to us helped us if we were stuck and also gave us a big chocolate bar at the end!
Have you ever played housie? If so have you ever won anything?

This week we got to draw a piece of paper out of a box and that would have a random country on it. With that country you had to do some research about it and write some instructions on a skill or game from that country. Next week we will be picking a type of food and making it then bringing it to school so there will be a whole assortment of food for everyone to try from all over the world but I will only be sharing my instructions maybe next week will be about the food. :) Here is my instructions on how to play Hul Gul: How to play Dutch Hul Gul Materials: *Buttons or any large quantity of small objects. *People to play with ( Any amount of people except by yourself) Gather buttons Give each player 10 buttons Each player places any amount of buttons up to 10 in their hand. Player 1 then holds out their hand face down with the buttons in hand so the other player(s) can’t see. Player 1 now asks another player (Player 2) how many buttons do I have in my hand.

Cross Country

By Anonymous -
Last week on Thursday my school had cross country. In my age group the year 8s had to run 3km and I came 5th which means I will be going to zones. At 9:00 am the whole school walked down to Walter park to start running, first was the year 8 boys and we finished with the year 6 girls. Everyone ran really well and tried their best I had a lot of fun running and cheering people on. After everyone was super tired and exhausted. Have you ever done cross country if you have how did you do?

For the last few weeks every Thursday we have been rotating between 4 sports in our home base's: Cricket, Lawn Bowls, Softball and Korfball. Korfball is a new sport to most of us in class and it is a bit like netball but with a few different rules during game. In Korfball instead the hoops were plastic and taller than the usual hoops. My home base has done all of them except Lawn Bowls and in our next rotation we will be doing that. Have you ever played Korfball before?
