On Monday the 1st of April the year 8 students went down to the Outram Bowling Club to learn how to bowl. First they split us up into groups of 4, I was with Aaron H, Aliesha H and Emily B. The president of the club was teaching us, she taught us how to hold a bowl and how to get our weighting and direction right. We played 6 ends in doubles. After that we went in side and had morning tea yummmmm!!!!! Mr Martin spilt his tea all over him and the table. We looked at the trophy's, after that we walked back to the school.

Otago Orienteering Champs
On the 30th of April the Otago Orienteering Schools Champs were held at McLeods farm. Outram entered a team of 7 and most of them got a placing. The course was really long and hard but we all finished. Georgia B got a forth, Ezekiel B a third, Daniel G, Charlie G and Kimberly S all got a second and Brittany S and Emily B got a first. The results showed we did really well and had heaps of fun.

The Academy focuses on students who have been identified as talented in physical activity and uses sport as a context to develop life skills for success. Specifically the intention is for the students involved to further develop self-discipline, team work, individual responsibility, having exposure to competitive situations, making appropriate behavioural choices, and to enhance their levels of personal confidence.
