Blacksticks Visit

We had the some of the Blacksticks (woman) come in, they told us a little bit about themselves and they also answered questions we asked like: How many sticks do you go through? And How many times do you practice a week?

We also got autographs from them! Here are some pictures:

Fantastic Floorball- Eastern Zones Tournament!

Natalie: Today we went to the ASB arena to play Floorball. We used up a lot of energy. Most of it was really challenging. Both of the WBS teams played seven games against different teams.

Gretel: Everyone was surprised and happy at the same time when our team won the sportsmanship and fair play award.

Frankie: We tried our best and that was great!

Billy: It was just so much fun!

Takehisa: It felt good to score goals against another team.

Emma: It was good to save a goal.

Liam G: I like the combination of hockey and football.

Louie: I liked playing floorball today because people were playing fair.

Message from Nicola: It was an absolute pleasure taking these children to the ASB arena. I am not surprised that they won the sportsmanship and fair play awards. They represented Worser Bay wonderfully and their behaviour and manners were exceptional!

A big thank you to all of the parents (and Ruth) who provided the transport. Also, a huge thank you to Hannah, who organised the teams throughout the day! 

Rotations

This morning we have a rotation happening. Floorball, inquiry and the Star test. For the inquiry we were lucky enough to have Andy come in and talk to us about innovation and invention. We looked at some really interesting medical innovations like skin grafts, as well as some other inventions. Please chat to us at home to find out what else we found out about.
