Nelly's Sports Day in France

Hi, everybody I had a nice time in France! A few days before I left I participated in " Sports Day". It was fun. On Thurdsay May seventh, I went to school at 8 am, we gathered and walked to the stadium. The 6° and 4° years students played basketball and the 5° and 3° year students played volleyball. I stayed with the 4° Diaz class and they played basketball. I encouraged them a lot. During the tournaments there was a lot of music and snacks. I love loud music, it wasn't pretty bad . .. Here you can see me enjoying myself. We had lunch together, then in the afternoon there was an enourmous relay race. We had to run: for fifty minutes each class had to run the most amount of laps around the track. The class which ran with the most - won the relay race. I only managed to do two laps because I have short legs, at the end I was exhausted.
Then we walked back to our school and we listened to a concert by the school chorale, then anouther group played rock and roll music which was fantastic! It was a great day.

Drill!

One activity her in Sweden is drilling. In class 6C two girls drill. And they have drilled for six years. They train once a week. The drill pole is made of steel and has a red band. When it is the May 1st eveybody in Slottbrons Drill goes out and drill in our home village, Slottsbron. I think it was really funny and it is at good hobby!

Bye bye

The sport day

Today there was a big sport day on the school. We had a lot of fun, but now I'm very tired of the activities. Before I'm going to sleep, I want to show you a few pictures...

Here I'm catching the frisbees. See how many frisbees I've catched!

When I was going back and forward on the tyre,
I had a funny feeling in my stomach :-)

I'm jumping on the trampoline. Whiiiiiiiiiii!

In the afternoon we were playing baseball. In Belgium, they love to play baseball! My group was the purple team. It was really difficult to hit the little ball, but I tried and tried and tried...

And I made 5 points!

Time for sunbading, just like my friend Reddy the Teddy did in Sweden :-)

Bye, bye!

The childeren who take care of me...

I am staying with the childeren of the sixth year, in the class 6A. Their teacher is miss Gwendoline. There is also another sixth year: 6D. Their teacher is mister Miguel. In both classes there are 20 pupils of 11-12 years old. They learn different things like: maths, Dutch, French, WO, music, drawing, dansing, ... . In June, the pupils say goodbye to the primary school, because they will have to go to the secondary school. There they will learn new things, make new friend, have a lot of teachers, ... . But during the last months in the sixth year, they will have a lot of fun!

Jean-Paul in the 5th year...

Friday I was on a visit in the 5th school year. Their teachers are miss Nele and miss Valérie. The pupils are approximately 10-11 years. They still go to the park, and they will get a large surprise on the end of the school year. The teachers of the 5th school year like to teach. The children are very polite against the teachers in the class. The teachers find it busy to go on a lot of trips, because they sit with 25 students in one classroom!

Floor ball

Hiya!

Today I went home with a boy in the class and watched his floorballstick and balls. But I was to shy to be on the picture. Floorball is very popular in Grums. There are usually about 20 players in a team. Most got 2 practices a week and a match on weekends.When you play theres 2 forwards, 1 center, 2 backs and 1 goalkeeper from each teams.Most invites about 16 players to a match, That way you got 3 chains ( 5 in each ) and one goalkeeper that plays all the time. And sometimes you bring 2 goalkeepers.

Horse riding

Hello , Today I was in the stable. When I was in the stable I take care of the horse. I clear the dung out and feed the horse. It dont smell so good when I clear the dung out. But I get big muscles when I work in the stable. I ride Maretto who's father was a great jumping horse. Befor I was riding I was asleep in the hay.

They train two to three times a week and have one game every weekend.

The name of their team is Slottsbrons IF. It´s a good and strong team. They are 13-14 years old. They are a 93-96 team. The training I was on is this team. Two years ago they won their serie. They worked really hard this training. The football beside me is I think really big.
