The Final Show - Winnie

The Final Show!

I can't believe it is almost over! The singing, dancing, acting had finally finished. There was no more! Well that's what I believed...I still had tunes buzzing around in my head from our production called Move It!

Last night I felt I did better than Wednesday night. It went well. The crowd was clapping loudly and after the production I slept well after a good book (of course!) I think the choir did the best that night. I was proud of the choir (I was in the choir), I think we looked great. The dance group danced in time really well together.

I think the senior syndicate put on a great show. It was the first production with so many people on the stage dancing. I also really liked the songs they danced to. This was a great last production for me at Sunnybrae.

The next morning was very strange because we only had 11 people in our class as the rest had a sleep in! Lucky! I didn't sleep in because my parents had to go to work. Our hard work paid off in the end because the production nights turned out really well.

Sumdog NZ Challenge - Room 13 9th!

Sumdog Challenge Blog Entry

By Winnie

Wow! What a great result! Out of 82 classes all over New Zealand,our class came 9th overall. We were versing colleges,intermediates and primary schools.1451 students played Sumdog for the maths competition.

Out of all the 1451 students that played,1 person in our class got into the top 10 which was Jae Won. He was 5th but actually 4th equal! 2 people in our class came in the top 50 ( Me and Jae Won ). 8 people in our class came in the top 100. It was also impressive that Marco answered 1000 questions in one day.

I was ranked 24th which meant I got into the top 50. My favourite game in Sumdog is probably Dance because it has music with the game. The most challenging game for me is Junk Pile because sometimes the items you place fall down. Next time I would try get into the top 10.

I think it is great Sumdog hosts these competitions because more people will play it and challenge themselves. I can’t wait for the next challenge!
