About Me

Hi, My name is Sam and I am a Year 5 student at Mt Carmel School. I wanted to participate in the Summer Blogging as I was with my mum when Rachel came to talk to her class. I asked my mum if I can join. Finally she agrees and I am very keen to journey through with so many children around New Zealand.

Playing Tennis!

“Yeah we got tennis today. I heard that we were the first class to play. So we quickly lined up and walked to the court talking about tennis.I was surprised because I thought he was a tennis player we know so he could be teaching us but my thinking was a failure because it wasn’t. He was a mystery guy we had to know and you know what he will be a good instructor of course.He was a tall man but taller then Mrs.Tui.His name was Marcell.But when I heard his name I was thinking about it.Where does his name come from?Scotland?British?Ireland?.Well I don’t know. During our amazing time of tennis,he told us to hit the ball on the net,on the side,on the net,on the side.He was so amazing at doing side ways.The next set of instructions is trying to balance the ball on the net.He blew his whistle but we didn’t know what to do until he said”Hug the tennis racket and hold the ball.”So I did what we were ask to do.When all of that was finish we played a game called King of the court.But that sounded kind of exciting for me.I did give it a try but it was hard for me to keep the ball bouncing to the King of the court.We had four winners that won the game. Until it was 9:45,it was time to finish because our time was finished with him. Thank you Marcell we said to him.I was thinking to myself saying,”I can’t wait for next time!!!!
