Hi Greg

here is my weekly report:

Last Thursday started very exciting the Basketball season in school and we went down to Philip Island to verse Newhavencollege. In our Basketballteam we are ten players and at least half of them play basketball outside of school so we started very good in the game. Then the "beginners" came in the game and the coach told us that we should just try because we were winning so high. I even got two free shots and it even went in the basket, but it didn't counted because I stepped over the line. But it was so much fun and I talked to a lot of other people I've never seen before.
Also on Friday, we didn't had normal school because we had swimming carnival. I swam three times, two times I had to swim in the under 21 instead of under 17 because a lot of people didn't wanted to swim. But I came second in one race so I got a Ribbon to put on my Blazer. On Friday night, we had a family dinner where I met all the children and grandkids of Bill and Margaret.
On Saturday morning, when I got up, Margaret was already preparing Scones and a bit later, two friends came and we had beautiful Scones for breakfast. Then Margaret dropped me off at Tim and Bronwyns house where I helped cleaning a bit for their big party on Sunday. I stayed there over night and after the last preparations, the first people arrived. We had a lot of food, cakes and slices and I enjoyed it just to talk to all the different people and to see all the family again.
On Monday in school at lunchtime we had again Basketballtraining and on Monday night venturers. There we did Masterchef where we had three groups and we had to cook a entre, a main and a desert - on a hiking stove.
My group did chicken noodle soup, risotto and chocolate pudding which didn't really worked, but we just covered it with a lot of chocolate sauce and it still tasted good. It was a lot of fun and in the end we just went all around with a fork and tried all the other menus.
On Tuesday night, I did all my homework in PE (sport) because I had to learn all the different important bones and joints. I was really happy that I got it all done, but on Wednesday we got all the important muscles and some more anatomical terms to learn. But I find it quite interesting so it isn't too bad. Yesterday night I went to the meeting in Garfield where I got my first sponsors for the bikeride and I get more and more excited about it and I can't wait until it starts!!!

This was my week, I hope I didn't forget anything ;)
