Silver Ferns
On the 13th of October my mum and I went to go watch the Silver Ferns play
against the Australian Diamonds in the first Constellation Cup match.
My mum and I arrived at Horncastle Arena around 3:15pm to get seated and ready
for the match because the game started at 4:00pm.
When both teams stepped out onto the court it was like there was a whole new
energy in the arena everyone was cheering and dancing it was amazing.
While both teams were warming up there were people who were giving out spot
prizes for the best dancing and I won, The prize chocolate and lucky enough it
was one of my favourites black forest. Finally the game started but they were
running a bit late so the game started around 4:15,
The 1st quarter was amazing there were so many great plays by each of the teams
and gladly the Silver ferns were winning!,
The 2nd quarter was even better Silver Ferns were still winning and there were
just some outstanding plays.
At the end of the 3rd quarter sadly the Silver Ferns were losing, but it was ok
because there still I more quarter. It was finally 50 seconds until the game was
finished and the Silver Ferns were winning everyone was cheering on both teams!!.
Everyone was counting down 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and the Silver Ferns won the first
2019 Constellation Cup match , Everyone was cheering with joy and dancing!!!.
After the game the Silver Fern and the Australian Diamonds were doing autographs
there was a massive crowd waiting to get autographs but some how I manged to get
in the front row while autographs were going I got to meet some of favourite netball
players, it was amazing after all of the autographs I went home and bragged about
my time at the game to my family. Overall it was an amazing experience and I
hope to enjoy it again one day.

Amazing Game
WALT: Write in paragraphs
All About Netball
In netball there are 7 different positions: you can play 7 a-side, 6-side and sometimes 5 a-side. In 5 a-side there are the following positions: A’s (Attacks/Shooters), D’s (Defence) and C’s (Centers). In 6 a-side it’s basically the same as 5 a-side except you just add in one more center. In 7 a-side the positions are: A’s (Attacks/Shooters), D’s (Defence), C’s (Center) and W’s (Wing Attack/Wing Defence).
The rules in netball are quite simple. All players play on a netball court which is divided into thirds. In the two end thirds there are semi-circles where the GS and GA are allowed to shoot from. Whatever way your team is shooting that is your goal third, The GA is a bit different because they can go into their goal third and the center third while the GS stays in the goal third. The WA is the exact same as the GA except they just CAN’T go into the semi-circle, C’s can go everywhere except for the semi-circles. For the defenders GK’s can only go in their oppositions goal third and the semi-circle and for the GD’s they can go into their oppositions goal third, the semi-circle and the center third. And lastly WD’s, WD’s can go into the center third and their oppositions goal third but NOT the semi-circle.
So for the rules I’ll just tell you the basic rules.
No stepping if you have the netball.
You can’t hold the ball for any longer then 3 seconds.
You can’t stand closer than 3 feet otherwise it’s obstruction.
You can’t make contact with your opponents otherwise that would be contact.
If you go where you are not allowed that is offside.
You can’t bounce the ball otherwise that’s replay.
If the ball if thrown out of court if it automatic hand over.

The New Zealand netball team is called the “Silver Ferns”. The Silver Ferns recently won the 2019 Netball World Cup. They had a tough win against England in the semi-finals, the score was 45-47. You can tell by this score it was a very tough and close game. Then they had a very successful and tough win against the Australian Diamonds in the finals, it was a close, intense game, the score was 51-52. The Silver Ferns were thrilled and proud of their win by adding to their other wins in the past. The Silver Ferns have won 4 other world cups in 1967, 1979, 1987 and 2003.

Bishop Joseph Grimes
Bishop Joseph Grimes
Bishop of Christchurch May 1887 - March 1915
John Joseph Grimes was the first Roman Catholic Bishop of Christchurch, New Zealand. He was born in London, United Kingdom on the 11th of February 1842 and was ordained as a priest on 22 August 1869 (aged 27). He was appointed on 13 May 1887 (aged 45). On 26 July 1887, He was Ordained as Bishop Joseph Grimes. His successor was Matthew Brodie. He was stricken down with yellow fever, from which he marvellously recovered. After that he was called by his superiors to take charge of the newly formed mission of Paignton, South Devon, England, where he endeared himself to all. He died in Christchurch on 15 March 1915 (aged 73). He was buried under the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament.
