Ruapotaka Mini Olympic

On Friday 19th of August Ruapotaka school made our own Mini Olympics. It was really cool because that was the first time we had a Ruapotaka mini Olympics. We had an opening ceremony with flag bearers for each country we represented.

When we finished our opening ceremony we played our events against other countries. I was in France.

French forest fires threaten cities

Wildfires in southern France have forced people to flee their homes and are threatening the country's second largest city, Marseille. About 1800 firefighters are fighting the blazes and are creating a firewall to try and protect the city. Hundreds of children and adults have been evacuated from their homes in the town of Vitrolles, about 25km north of Marseille. Some homes in Vitrolles have already been destroyed.
