Chess

Today at Enrich It started off with..... Chess.  I challenged Liam Watkins.  He went to the Chess tournament in Dunedin last Saturday.  Right back to the game, Liam got White, that was the colour I wanted to get.  Oh Well at least I got Black.  He tried to open up with scholars but I blocked it. Liam nearly got me in check mate already but I blocked with a pawn.  If he took my pawn he would lose his Queen so he moved it back to something like E3.  In two moves I'm going to get Liam in check mate but oh come on Katie just put the music on and Liam destroyed the board.  At least he was below me.

Chess and Talent Development

Today at Enrich we started off playing Chess.  At the moment I am very happy because I have just gotten into the Enrich Chess team for the Otago/Southland Chess competition in Dunedin this weekend.  I played Matt S today and I won. Straight after that I played Liam and I was about to win but, Katie just started the music so I actually didn't win. The top six are: Matt L, Bruno, Me, Liam, Matt S and Luca.

Today we also did talent development. For MADE Awards we started to do our filming. All the filming we did was at Enrich. We were meant to go to Waihopai School,  but it was pouring down with rain and Norton wasn't here. My favourite part was filming because I love using the video cameras. We have already used up 2 minutes of filming and we are only allowed 45 seconds, so we have to edit a lot of our footage.
