I really enjoyed reading your biography about Sam. I can tell you have taken your time to research your subject carefully before you started writing.
ReplyDeleteIt is so encouraging to see you follow Charlotte and Sam. I am sure you support will help them to do NZ proud at the London Olympics.

Hi Zanna - could you please help my daughter? She has chosen to write about Sam for part of her olympic homework but we are unable to find out if she has any siblings other than Charlotte? Thanks in advance!
DeleteWow Katrina. You have very famous followers on your blog, well done. I really enjoyed reading your biography. It was extremely informative and written using high interest words. Hasn't the NZ womans Hockey team performed brilliantly.
ReplyDeleteHi Mr Gifkins, Thanks for the comment the blacks sticks men and woman are playing well. Have you ever played hockey? it has been a great season for me team in hockey, we are still unbeaten!
DeleteHi Katrina ... I have three daughters, my youngest is Anita who is 19.
ReplyDeleteWe are all in London and hanging tight over here. We have just had a nerve wracking draw vs Germany who are ranked third in the world. The whole team and support people are buzzing. We have our eye on gold :)
Charlotte and Sam started club hockey at 6 & 7 years and progressed from there. It has been a climb. Nothing worth while is easy. We hope to do you all proud.
Kind regards

Hi Zanna Harrison. Thanks for replying to my questions! But I would like to know some more! What stick brand do your daughters like the most? Do they like the uniform? I think it is awesome!
DeleteI have been watching all the games:) I am quite tired, though it has been worth it! Are Sam and Charlotte tired from playing the games?
Have they adjusted to the London time?
Have they seen anything in london?
Many Thanks Katrina and Olivia:}

Hi Zanna. Is your youngest daughter that Anita Punt. I think the Black sticks played well against the number one team Netherlands. It thought they were going to win but they didn't. I think Bianca Russell played well saving the most of the goals. But it is kind of unfair for the goal at penalty shoot out. And send my get well soon to Katie Glynn. Is she alright? It must of hurt? Then she came back on!
DeleteMany thanks Katrina
Hi Zanna,
ReplyDeletehow you finding London.
