HIIT: A Final Session To End The Term

Today as the second to last day of term 2, we had 1 final session of HIIT to finish off the term. In today's session we all focused on our upper body strength, and did a rotation of pull ups, press ups, and mountain climbers. In each rotation, we would have a partner. With our partner we would take turns every 30 seconds to do each exercise. Although before we got to the main exercises, we started with a warm up. With a buddy, we would try to tap their shoulders, while not getting taped ourselves. If your shoulder was tapped, you would then do a burpee. Then we switched the punishment to planking, and hitting your partners hands 10 times. At the very end we would do one final exercise. We would all do squats to the song Flower which many times includes the words Up and Down. Every time the word up was said, we would stand. Every time the word down was said, we would squat. I had a lot of fun today, and I am hoping we continue next term.

KiwiSport: Gymnastics

Today we had our second session of gymnastics for our KiwiSport for term 2. Today, we had new rotations, and different challenges. This includes back rolls, 1 leg handstands, star jumps, 180 jumps, and a few extra stretches. I managed to do each task, and I had a lot of fun. Our instructor Steve is doing a great job instructing us, and I believe that everyone is enjoying the lessons.

My Term Two Holidays: Recap

For the last two weeks, our school has been having our term 2 winter holiday. Whilst we did needed to have a holiday away from school, we were also given a small challenge. That being two post 3 blogposts about our holidays at any point being, as long as we completed it during the holidays. There will be a link to those two other posts if you would like to check them.

Week 1:
During this week I mainly stayed around home for the whole of the week. There were times were we would do something a family, but most of our plans were set for week 2.

Week 2: During this week, me and other family members visited the amazing Rotorua. We were there for 3 days, and had a lot of fun. Day one was placing everything into the hotel. Day 2 was visiting Skyline to do the Luge, and the Zipline. Finally on day 3, we stayed around the hotel for a bit, and left.

My Term Two Holidays: Week 2

For the last two weeks, our school has been having our term 2 winter holiday. Whilst we did needed to have a holiday away from school, we were also given a small challenge. That being two post 3 blogposts about our holidays at any point being, as long as we completed it during the holidays.

Week 2:
This week has definitely been a lot better. As of Tuesday me and some other family members took a trip to Rotorua. We visited there for 3 days, from Tuesday to Thursday. The biggest highlight of the trip had to be visiting SkyLine, and doing the Luge, and the Zipline. We spent the whole of Wednesday there, going through each attraction together. We were there for the whole day, and only made it back home at around 6 o'clock in the afternoon. Then came the final day, we left to go home at 12.00 (The time where we needed to check out), and made it home at about 8 o'clock at night! That day, we didn't do anything exciting, as we rather just chilled out for the last few hours at the hotel. I had a really fun time at Rotorua, I wonder when we will be able to revisit the amazing things that we did there.

My Term Two Holidays: Week 1

For the last two weeks, our school has been having our term 2 winter holiday. Whilst we did needed to have a holiday away from school, we were also given a small challenge. That being two post 3 blogposts about our holidays at any point being, as long as we completed it during the holidays.

Week 1:
My first week of the holidays was an extra long weekend for me. Pretty much I would stay around the house, and chill out. I would occasionally do something out of the house, but we had already set all of our plans for the following week. This isn't the most interesting post, as there wasn't anything interesting that happened during the first week of the holidays. Although this was a boring post, the following post for the next week will be a better post with a more interesting topic.
