Tonga vs England

During their success I have enjoyed seeing smiles on peoples faces and the joy they have seeing their country play against other countries.

I have also enjoyed hearing people all over G.I screaming and clapping for Tonga, hearing people cheer as loud as they can makes other people laugh and cry tears of joy.

I’ve learnt that people are serious when it comes to games like this, especially when there’s heaps to family members and friends that support their culture.

I’ve also learnt that being part of a culture means having pride for your country and leading with strength and love and supporting others.

This has helped me as a young person to always take care of the people that I am loved from and the people thats around me, Its made me feel confident and proud to know that where I come from is where I belong and who I represent.

It has also helped me as a young person to be a role model for my little siblings and also making my family proud.

Tonga and England had a very tough game but everyone knew whoever wins on losses were all champions and we never give up!

Activity 2:  In the ancient Olympic Games the winner of each event was called the Olympionics . Instead of a gold medal, the winner had a palm leaf placed in their hands and a crown placed on their head to show that they were the winner. Arguably one of the most famous Olympionics was a man named Milo of Kroton. Use Google to research ‘Milo of Kroton’ and post three interesting facts about him on your blog.

Fact 1:Milo Croton enjoyed a brilliant wrestling career and won many victories in most important athletic festivals of ancient Greece.

Fact 2:

 Among other tales and he was said to have carried a bull on his shoulders and to have burst a band about his brow by simply inflating the veins of his temples.

Fact 3:

The date of Milo's death is unknown, but he reportedly was attempting to tear a tree apart when his hands became trapped in a crevice in its trunk, and a pack of wolves surprised and devoured him

Weekly Activity 1

Activity 1: Let’s imagine that you were alive 2792 years ago and invited to compete in the first ever ancient Olympic Games. Which of these events: running, wrestling, boxing, pankration, horse racing and pentathlon would you compete in? Click on the name of the sport and it will take you to a site that tells you about the sport. On your blog tell us which sport you would choose and why you chose it.

So I chose- Running because it is a type of exercise and helps keep you fit and so that you can be faster and fitter than Usain Bolt and beat his world record of the fastest time that he has ran.And if something bad is going to happen to you then theirs only one thing to do and that's RUN.When you run it may feel like your running out of breath but you can still make I know you can just don't give up.If you think your about to or going to give up then instead of running I think jogging would be better.
