Rowing

Two weeks ago we went to the collage rowing club on the urgs, if you do not know what they are they are rowing machines. We did that once and the next week we actually went out on the water in the boats, I was super worried about it at first but when I got in the boat for the first time I enjoyed it. It was a bit hard to keep in time and for some reason my oar kept coming out the water. The next time I did it, it was yesterday actually, it was so much easier to row. I really enjoyed it and was so so much fun to do. I did everything right and managed to keep in time for most of the time I was on the boat. The boat we were rowing on was a 8 seater, We all had to row in time and that was the hardest thing to do.

Year 8 Dinner

On Wednesday all of the year eights went to something called the year 8 dinner, it is a celebration where the year 8s go the week before the end of the term. We bring our parents and go see everyone else. When mum and I got there we were greeted by the head master before  having a photo taken of us. After that we got led by a waiter to our table, I was sitting with Cayla , John, and Patrick's family as well as mine. We also had two really good speakers, A rower from the collage and of course the head master. They gave us a video of the questions we all answered . All in all it was a fun night that I will remember fondly.
