On Tuesday June 7th Mrs. Dressel's grade 4 class went to Queen's University for sports day. We did lots of activities like: Fencing, Field hockey, swimming, badminton and racquetball. When it was time for us to do field hockey the grass was fake which made it feel really cool. Taylor and I were both on the shirt team and we were against the pinney team. It was really fun using field hockey sticks because they are pretty different compared to hockey sticks. For most people it was their first time playing. when it was time for swimming we had to do a swim test to be able to go to the dive tank. The diving boards were so much fun!! When we played racquetball you had to try not to hit the ball to high up but I am pretty sure everyone hit it above the red line a couple times. I loved that game!!!! We also did karate and we learned blocks and punches and kicks it was really fun! The person that was teaching us was really good at karate!! He could jump and kick at the same time!! WOW!!! When we did fencing we had to put on all the heavy gear and it was all white. Our weapons had plastic tips at the end so no one would get hurt when they were fencing against other people. It was a really fun day and everyone loved it. I hope we go back next year!
