Good morning chairperson, good morning audience.

This is the way that I started my speech for the debate at Campsie P.S. yesterday. Our debate was topic was: Earth Hour is a waste of time.

We were the negative team and that means we said no, Earth Hour is not a waste of time.

Our 4 arguments were:

1. It raises awareness
2. It gives power to individuals
3. It gives us a taste of future reality
4. It gives global warming an international focal point

Campsie P.S. were the affirmative team which means they said yes, Earth Hour is a waste of time. These were their arguments:

1. Not many people participate
2. It’s only one hour
3. It has no sponsors
4. Big companies don’t participate

We WON the debate and are hoping to go well in the future as well. Here is our team: Natalie was the 1st speaker, Naomi(me) was the 2nd speaker, Ramiz was the 3rd speaker and Celia was the team adviser.

After the debate the school provided food for us, this food included: chips, cakes, donuts and poppers.

P.S. A clue to the riddle is that he breaks them, but what next?

 You might have read a post earlier that was about district athletics carnival. Well Tuesday the 25th October was a regional carnival and we respresented our district (Wiley Park). We enjoyed it and met up with lots of friends from other schools.

None of us let the district down and worked our legs off!!! We are happy with our result of just getting there. We tried but could not match the ability of the other athletes. We are proud of ourselves and hope to do better next year.

My school has a fast runner though. . . . . . . . . .

Hafiz Gami achieved well in many things such as . . . . . . .

He won 11 years boys 100 metres, long jump, high jump, shotput and discus.He also got second in 11 years boys 200 metres.

Unfortunately, I got last in my Junior girls 200 metres heat and came 21st/24. I came 9th in long jump, just missing out on a 4th jump.
