Zespri Challenge

 My class has been doing the Zespri challenge for a few days and most of been enjoying it so far. We go on walks around the block nearly every day and enter our data into the website to unlock new videos. Me and Jess have been doing tennis for a few weeks and that gets us heaps of steps.

It is important for the whole class to enter their steps as data for all of our benefit. We will unlock new videos and soon enough we'll reach the end of our journey. If everyone participates then we can get there faster than if only a few people did it.

You also get bonus points for how much fruit & veg you eat, how little your screen time is, how much water you drink, etc. Even if you only eat one fruit you get bonus points. Some people might like to cheat and say they ate more fruit and vegetables than sugar an snacks. Or maybe they'd say they spent half an hour on their devices when they really spent six hourrs.

Kaylis Peneha Awarded Steve Adams Basketball Scholarship

Kaylis Peneha has been awarded the Steven Adams basketball scholarship for 5 years. I don't know what that means but I assume it's something good. He had to go through a strict and careful test to get into Scots College. The basketball coach at the college supports Kaylis acknowledging his talent. It was a big surprise when he was given the chance at a scholarship which recognizes one student and assists them through their college years.

Paxmin Raukawa, one of Kaylis's basketball coaches, was very supportive of Kaylis. Kaylis has already been to two Steven Adams traaining camps, particularly New Zealands highest profile professional basketball to ever play in American basketball league. 

Steven Adams, who currently plays in the United States for the Memphis Grizzlies, was enrolled in Scot College and his training camps and scholarships are kind ways of uplifting and helping dreaming youthful basketball players wanting to pursue professional careers in basktetball.

"All of us here at Raukawa basketball are excited for Kaylis and the oppurtunities this scholarship will provide him." Paxmin states. "On top of being really talented, Kaylis is just a really good kid and him and his whanau deserve this." He has said all the club members are pleased for Kaylis.
