Meeting Black Ferns.

 Jamie, Nikita, April, Frances and Julio would like to tell you about this fantastic event:

During lockdown, the Black Ferns hosted a public Zoom Meeting and anyone who had the link could join in. There were two zoom meetings and one was hosted at ten o’clock and the other at eleven o’clock. Mister Bell told our class at our google meet that the Black Ferns were hosting a zoom meeting and the public could join if they had the link. 

Mister Bell added the link onto our daily timetable. Some of us were really excited to meet them and ask the Black Ferns questions. It was organised because September is the month of the Rugby World Cup. This huge sporting event is being held over thirteen different places across the United Kingdom. Everywhere, everyone is getting warmed up to watch it. Everyone mostly went to the eleven o’clock zoom meeting. It ended at eleven thirty three.

The Black Ferns who were at the Rugby Zoom Meeting were Eloise Blackwell, Vania Wolfgramm, Ruahei Demant, Liana Mikaele Tu’u, and Mai Kawana Aulani Roos. The questions that our class asked were, “What inspired you to join rugby?” “What dance moves do you know?” “What is your favourite smoothie?” I don’t think any of the Black Ferns answered our questions, but it is okay. The Black Ferns were talking about their culture, where they live, their hobbies, and what they like. 

After the Zoom meetings, everyone was happy because the Black Ferns’ fans and supporters got to know more about some of the Black Ferns. Next time when this happens again, maybe most of the class will go to the zoom meeting!
