Olympic History
Do you know about the ancient Olympic game?
It started in 776 BC in Olympia,Greece. There was only one event that was the 200 yard dash. Only men could compete in the nude. The games were a religious festival held every four years to honour the god Zeus.
In 391 AD Rome invaded Greece. Two years later the Olympic games were abolished in 336 AD. A Frenchman started the Modern Olympics in 1896.
This year the Olympics are held in Greece and I am going to support the New Zealand Olympic.

My Real life hero is my dad because when there is something wrong my dad will go out and fix the problem. My dad will make sure there is food on the table and the bills all paid.When someone tries to come and rob our house my dad gets up and chases them away so they don’t come.
My dad is my hero because when I am sick my dad will take me to the doctors and stay by my side until I am better.
My dad is my hero and I love him.

As soon as Tim got his pocket money, he jumped on his bike and raced straight down to the shop. “How can I help you”? asked the shopkeeper.
Tim looked long and hard at all the ice-blocks and finally said, “I'd like a lemonade ice-block please”. “Here's your ice-block”. “That will be one dollar and fifty cents”, said the shopkeeper. Tim put his money on the counter and headed out the door calling, “
Thanks very much, as he went.
Thanks very much, as he went.
“Come back”, called the shopkeeper. “There's fifty cents change”.
“In that case”, said Tim, walking back to the counter, “I'll have a packet of chewing gum as well”. “There you are”. “I hope you enjoy it”, said the shopkeeper.” I will, said Tim”.
