Blenz Cricket Day and Family Fun Day

On Thursday 27th February Vivian from Blenz came to school to pick me up and off to town we drove.  We got to the venue and I was allowed to play on the playground while waiting for the rest of the children to arrive.  When everyone was there we went inside to a huge room that was set up with some nets.  We got into groups, we called my group The Excellent Thunderbolts.  We started bowling a special ball that had something inside it that would rattle when it was rolled so those who couldn't see could hear where the ball was heading.  After some practice we started a game for fun.  We had to use the cricked bat to hit the ball as hard as we could, we didn't have to run, just hit the ball.  I managed to hit the ball every time!

On Sunday the 2nd March my family and I went to a Family Fun Day at Blenz.  When we got there I saw a petting zoo which had one pig, a few little goats and some sheep.  We were allowed in the pen with them and could pat them. Next my parents and I went to get a sausage from the Sausage Sizzle which was free, we also had Chocolate Milk and Chocolate ice cream which was delicious.  After lunch there was a lady that said "Whoever would like a ride in a Porche car please come to me".  I decided that sounded like great fun.  All the cars were lined up and I got into a red Porche.  The driver took me for a ride out to the airport and back which took about 20 minutes, it was nice talking to the driver but we weren't allowed to go fast as we were in traffic.  I felt very happy and lucky to get a ride in such an expensive car.  After a great day it was time to head home.  We were all feeling very tired.
