Ruapotaka's Year 7's and 8's visit The NZ Breakers

Yesterday I took 10 very lucky year 7 and 8's to the NZ  Breakers basketball team training facility on the North Shore.

The boys and myself were impressed with how hard they trained every day.

Then, we got to play some B-ball and do some skills and drills with the team. Aydrian can't believe how tall some of the players are!

We had an amazing day with the Breakers.

The Scooter Race-By Popi

Yesterday a funny thing happened while Sebastian and I were having a race on scooters but suddenly….. Stay tuned to see what happens next.

The race was on and I was in the lead but then… he passed me and wanted to win. I was taking my time once I got on to the slippery concrete. Sebastian was going fast while I was going slow and suddenly he turned and slipped over. He started laughing and then I started to laugh but he got back up and we were still racing.

When he fell I almost ran him over, but luckily I didn’t. At the end of the slippery path I did one big drift but I didn’t fall over. I was almost at the finish line but I lost because Sebastian cheated. He went through this hole in our gate I had made and he won.
