SAISA GIRL'S FOOTBALL

Since the field was all wet and muddy, we spent our practice time in the gym. There was a BOY'S BASKETBALL match from 9.30 to 11 a.m, we waited until they finished (we lost).
However, I'm not the type to sit still and wait for the time of our practice to come. I took a ball, grabbed a teammate and started practicing passing the ball on the side of the coat. There were times when the ball was about to go inside the coat... oops!
Other time, I used the wall to practice. Stand close to the wall with 1m distance away. Then kick the ball to the wall softly and use both legs to kick it. This actually helped and was a good exercise.
Another time, I threw the ball to hit the wall that is higher than me, then head it back to the wall when the ball falls. I know I'm struggling with heading the ball during the match, so I need to improve my weaknesses.
Another time, when I had more space, I kicked the ball to the wall in the angle. Stand next to the wall (left), about 1m away and kick the ball 45 degrees to left. Then I start running forward, because when I kick the ball in the angle, the ball bounces in the angle 45 degrees when the ball his the wall. This was a good practice to make me catch up with the ball when my teammate passes the ball to me.

Later on when the basketball finished, we played a small game with two goals on each sides. I was left back. I learned to go in front of the opponent when I get the ball from the goalie. It was an awfully fun practice, I must say.

Library Service

Happy thanks giving!


Annoucement!
Book Week that is coming up! It's from 29th November to 3rd December.
Bring a book to school during this week, as we will get 10 to 20 minutes of reading time in class.
Tuesday, bring your favourite poem, and we will be sharing them with everyone!
Read-a-thon; raise funds by reading books and donate the money to NGO to help build libraries for children in many countries.


We have discussed about the events above during the library service today. We weren't able to make much progress on the Read-a-thon, therefore we will be looking for sponsers who can give the money. This will continue about 4 months, so we are looking forward to raise as much as possible. We will be reminding the students in campus to have at least one book to read for next week.
