Bolt fastest man in the world

  This interested me because I really like running and it is really interesting to watch on TV I believe they can run that fast they must practice every day and some of the night.                                                                   Olympic champion Usain Bolt has confirmed that he is the fastest man on the planet by winning the 100m at the World Athletics Championships.
The Jamaican won the 100 by 0.01 from American sprinter Justin Gatlin.
The Jamaican had struggled for form and fitness all season, however, in the final he surged past the in-form American over the last 30 metres and crossed the line in 9.79 seconds, his fastest run of the year.
“I came out here, relaxed, no stress and brought it home. My aim is to be number one until I retire and therefore I am pushing myself and pushing myself,” said the 29-year-old after striking his trademark “Lightning Bolt” pose.
Gatlin finished second in 9.80 to take silver as he did at the world championships in Moscow two years ago, while young guns Andre de Grasse of Canada and American Trayvon Bromell finished together in third place in a time of 9.92.
Bolt, the reigning Olympic champion and world record holder, has now not been beaten in the 100m or 200m in six major global championships going back to 2007.

Jacob And Me the shadow cross country.

Before. Before the Cross country I could smell the wet grass.
I felt Jacob’s heart pounding!!! in his chest, I felt nervous and I heard lots of nervous talking from others around me.  I felt like I might be sick.
Tasted  I could taste the cool wind as it blew gently on my face. My mouth was dribbling nervously.
During.   I could hear people panting loudly, I could see their warm breath on the frosty air. I could see myself moving along the cold frosty grass.
I felt myself panting, chasing people in front, and watching those chasing Jacob from behind.  I was worried people were going to pass Jacob.
It tasted like my lungs were exploding into my throat, it tasted like pwuck was going to come out of my mouth from all of that bouncing up and down.
Jacob’s arms were pumping hard.
I was proud of Jacob
After, After the race I felt exhausted.  I felt myself dragging across the finish line. I could see people lying on the ground.  I felt glad and pleased with myself.  I could see other people sprinting across the finish line.  I could hear people saying great job Jacob, and I was thinking, what about me?

The article in read kiwi kids world news, was about messages in bottles that have been sent and then found around the world. This really interested me because it made me think about the journey the bottles would have been on while they were at sea it is kind of a pen paw

where did the bottles travel, where did they come from.

what  was in the bottles, what happened to the nave soldier.

how did the bottle  stay afloat.

who wrote the message in the bottle.


why did they write it.

Don’t you get sick and tired of going to Hamilton to get fast foods.  



Firstly if
fast food places were all in Morrinsville it would save time for traveling.



My second reason to you is because it saves petrol. Less time to do other stuff like going places like to go on holidays









My third reason is it takes so long to drive to hamilton and it would only take three or four minutes to get to morrinsville, if we had fast food places in morrinsville and it takes thirty two kilometers to get t o hamilton and that's why we need a base in morrinsville By Jacob Keating, morrinsville.

When I was reading the national, kiwi kids news I found something that really got my attention  it appeared to be a sport advertisement, because it had well known rugby players, it was actually Air New Zealand releasing their latest Men in Black safety video. What is it, A safety video for people who are going on to a plane. Who was in the video, some All Black players, including Steve Hansen, the coach of the All Blacks, and singer Stan Walker. Here is a link to watch the video, I think it is worth watching. http://www.kiwikidsnews.co.nz/blog/all-blacks-the-new-mib/
