Potato Olympics

At the potato Olympics I did three activities. My first event was gym 2. I scored 90. I got the front flip that 40 and I got the back flip that was 50.

My second event was golf. My potato got injured because somebody’s potato banged into my potato. My potato smashed into the chair and the chair fell onto my potato. My potato won. It turned into oval shape and I hit the potato and it made it over the line.

My last event was running. I scored 20 twice. My score all together was forty points. On the last run my potato went into Mrs Rowe’s room. I was so quiet that no one in Mrs Rowe’s room noticed. One the first run all the boards fell down. The run counted as a foul because the boards fell down and a potato got squished.

After my three events my potato felt proud and dizzy. I went back to my class. In my class we talked about what happened to our potato. Most of them were injured.

On Thursday the seventh of August it was the Potato

Olympics at Buninyong Primary school!

My potato’s first event was hockey. I almost hit my potato’s head with the hockey stick.

Next we went to golf. My potato swallowed eighty golf balls. Mrs McCormack was very surprised because SUDDENLY my potato grew to an enormous size.

Our last event was gym 1.When my potato landed, it landed on its head. My potato also won a bronze medal. We all had fun!!!

At the Potato Olympics I did three events. One was target, another bowling and the last one was gym two. My potato had fun. First he did target. He missed both times. Next was bowling I got seven then I got six. The next event was gym two. It was really hard for my potato. It got injured doing the splits.

On the way back my potato fainted on the grass because it was so tired. It woke up eleven hours later. Soon he started running really fast. He ran six times around the world. He won lots of races and when my potato came back he had lots of trophies.

He didn’t know what to do so he went for a walk and he was walking faster than a car can go. He was amazed. So my potato went back in the three events and won them all. He was really happy and went back to his classroom.

Our Class Pet

We have a pet albatross called Snowy. He is only a baby, he was born on January 25, 2008.

He is white and fluffy, with a strong beak and black, beady eyes. All day he sits in the nest, waiting to be fed. His parents come every 3-4 days to feed him some yummy squid, one day we saw him being fed.

Every day he seems to be getting bigger. He is now getting some black adult feathers. When he was born he was as big as a juice box but now he is as big as a big bag of potatoes. In August he will be ready to leave the nest and fly away.

We visit him using webcam on the Internet and we like to check on him as often as we can.

His nest is in the albatross colony near Dunedin, New Zealand.

If you would like to visit Snowy, he can be found at www.albatross.org.nz
