Amazing Maths Race

On 11th April 2007, Charmaine, Jing En, Yan Shen and I participated in the 'Amazing Maths Race'. We had lots of fun and enjoyed ourselves very much. During the competition, we had to go to the different stations. The station master there would give us a worksheet. After we completed the worksheet, we would return it to the station master and she would mark it. When the siren rings, we must go back to the hall. Teams that arrive late will be disqualified. Following the competition was the prize-giving. All of us thought that we would not get anything but instead, we got gold! We were very happy. I hope that we can participate again next year!

My NAPHA Test

On 9th April 2007, I had my NAPHA Test. It was very fun. At 1.30pm, we gathered in the canteen. Class by class, we went up to the hall to have our NAPHA Test. First, I did the ‘Sit and Reach’. I reached 29 cm, which is a C. Then I did the ‘SBJ (standing broad jump)’. I jumped 160 cm, which is an A. I was very happy because normally, I jumped only about 145 to 155 cm. Next, I did the ‘Shuttle Run’. We were supposed to run, pick up the shuttlecock, run back, put down the shuttlecock, run, pick up another shuttlecock and run back again. I finished it in 11.8 seconds. I got B. After that, I decided to do the ‘Inclined Pull Up’. I did 17 in 30 seconds, which is an A. Then, I went to do the ‘Sit Ups’. The first time, I did 17 in one minute, which is a D. To get gold for NAPHA Test, your worst grade can only be C. Since I want to get gold, I cannot get D. So, I tried again a while later. This time, I did 27 in one minute. I was very happy as it was an A.

On Thursday, we will have our 1.6 km run. I must finish running within 11.4 minutes to obtain at least a C to get gold. I am not sure if I can do it, but I hope I can. I really want to get gold.

Table Tennis Competition

On 22 March 2007, I had table tennis competition. The first school that we compete with is Qiaonan Primary School. We won them 5-0. Next, we played with Poi Ching School. We won them 5-0 too. I was very happy. On 28 March, we played with St. Hilda’s Primary School. We won them 5-0. Then, it is the semi finals. We played with PLMGS (Paya Lebar Methodist Girls’ School). We won 3-0. On 2 April, it is the finals. We will compete with Red Swastika School. I am very excited and hope that we can win!
