My lockdown experience

 Kia Ora,

Today I am sharing with you my lockdown experience in 5 sentences. Here it is: It was very boring and I had no friends. I learned how to cook but also nearly burnt down the house. I did online video calls with my teacher Mr Tisch and did some work. I was on call and got knocked out by my swing. Me and my sister fought my family. I went for walks with my mother.

Sophie Pascoe

 Kia Ora,

Today I am sharing with you my work and some fun things about New Zealand's most successful paralympian Sophie Pascoe! She lost her leg in an lawnmower accident and had to get her leg removed. That didn't stop her and she still did swimming and did really well and got into the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics. Here is my work:

Sophie Pascoe participated in the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics. She lost her leg on the 23 September 1995 from her dad accidentally running over her leg with their lawnmower and because of that he leg was amputated under the knee. She won 2 gold 1 for silver and one for bronze and she won the world record while taking her total tally to 15 Paralympic medals. This success has now made Sophie the most decorated New Zealand Paralympic ever!
