London 2012 blog

Hi Friends,

Hope you've been watching the Games in Beijing like I have, it's been brilliant. We came 4th in the world which isn't bad at all for a small country is it? Me and my family watched the Cycle Racing, Gymnastics and Boxing mostly - which was a bit scary as they were punching each other very hard at times. Earlier in the day I watched a man on Newsround who went to have a lesson with a famous boxer to show him a few moves and tell him what punches were illegal. He said you have to punch your apponent in the face with the white bit of the boxing glove so I guess that must be OK then!

The Closing Ceremony was as brilliant as the Games, all those fireworks especially the ones that made the Olympic symbol were fantastic. Two men banged huge drums while they were hanging from the stadium roof and below them hundreds of other drummers beat out a repeated pattern while they danced to the music.



I liked the men on the bicycles made of lightbulbs who rode through the dancers, wish I had one of those bikes, no one would miss you on the road in one of those! Thousand of men on bouncy legs came next like giant crickets bouncing around the stadium floor.

I had to go to school at 8.00am today!!! Not for lessons though, today was special, we had some very important people coming from the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games and Visa, who sponsor the Games, to talk to me, my friends and teachers about the Paralympic games being held in Beijing China and to plan the Paralympic handover celebrations for 2012.

Planning for handover celebrations with my classmates:
