St Vincent's had the opportunity to see the rugby World Cup at St Mary's university on Thursday September 10th. At St Mary's we found the grounds and got help to find the grounds we were going to be playing in. There were many activities to do and we were all excited for them, but first was the warm up. For the warm up we played stuck in the mud with a rugby ball. Two people from each school got a chance to be “it”. We played a few rounds and then we got water. After the warm up we went straight into playing tag rugby. After a few minutes we played 6 passes because only a few people on a team would get the ball. We also did something like zones because everybody was chasing the ball. After a bit we got medals and went to see the World Cup. Once we got there it had almost started. The trophy had just arrived and we were in the front of the gigantic crowd. Not long later we got pictures with the trophy and it was an amazing day. When we got back we played another round of six passes then headed back to school. It was a great experience.
We would like to thank Coach Brown for organising this event, Mr Buyers for taking us and all of the drivers.
