Today the Atheletics Carnival was so successful. Even though it rained a bit, we still continued. I was 2nd in the 100 meters and 200 meters race.  There was no finals for 200 meters but for 100 meters finals I was 5th.

  There are four houses ( teams ) , Freeman, Newcombe, Bradman and Fraser. Freeman has won the house cup 5 times in a row, and I’m lucky enough to be in Freeman. There was Long Jump, which I didn’t get a place in.

 Then there were ball games, Captain Ball and Tunnel Ball. I was in the Captain Ball team for Freeman, but in the Tunnel Ball team, I swapped with someone else. There was also Tugger War, but that was just for fun and we didn’t have time for it anyway.

 I was so excited when it came to my race, I didn’t do the 800 meters because I thought that it would be too much for me. I thought I would be too tired after around 400 meters.

The Atheletics Carnival is on tomorrow!!! I’m so excited, I hope it doesn’t rain,  if it does, it is going to be cancelled. Even if it does rain, I hope it only rains in the afternoon.  This year, I want to get into Zone. ( Getting into zone means that you compete with other schools.

If it does rain, I wonder when it is going to get postponed to.  The news says that it will rain but I hope it is after the carnival.                                           

A few weeks ago, we were doing a maths project. We had to find a subject that we were bad at. I chose probability because I got most wrong in the diagnostic test.  Here is my question.

 What is the probability that  students receive academic excellence if there are 900 students and 30 classes?

900 divided by 30 equals 30 because only 1 student per class can receive it.

30/900 as a fraction

Simplify 1/30

That is the final answer to my presentation and question. Even though I didn’t learn much, I still thought I improved in probability.
