Korfball
this week we played Korfball, Korfball is basically net ball but it has different hoops and if you are getting blocked you can't shoot so pass quick. There was a guy called Youri he taught us how to play  Korfball. I would rather Korfball over netball.

G'day mate!  St Patrick is here!

For Saint Patrick's Day we brought green hats to school but we didn't have to because our school hats are green. We do green hat day every year to celebrate the feast day of St Patrick's Day but we had to do it early  because his feast day is in the weekend.                                     


Bye bye now, have a great day.
