Hey guys i'm back with a new blog. Today I will be talking about Olympics over the ages. I have chosen to write about the Olympics because, this years Olympics got postponed until next year because of the pandemic. The first Olympics was on 6 April 1896 it was held in Athens. Although the ancient games were in Olympia, Greece from 776 BC to 393 AD, it took 1503 for the Olympic games to return. In the 1896 Olympics they and 241 athletes, 14 countries, and 43 events. Which is very different numbers from our last Summer Olympics in Rio. In 2016 in Rio the Olympics had 11238 athletes, 207 countries, and 306 events. So we have come a long way. The games they play in 1896 were:

- Athletics                                                                                 - Cycling Road
- Cycling Track                                                                        - Fencing

- Swimming                                                                             - Tennis
- Weightlifting                                                                          - Wrestling Crego - Roman

Here our some pictures of the First Olympics:



Then in 1924 we had the first Winter Olympic games. The games were held in France, there was 258 athletes, 16 countries, and 16 events. The events they had were:

- Bobsleigh                                                                                                    - Cross Country Skiing
- Curling                                                                                                        - Figure Skating

- Ski Jumping                                                                                                - Speed Skating

Hey guys i'm back with another blog, today I will be talking about World War II. World War II was the second world war. It went on from 1939 - 1945. WWII was the cause of Germany invading Poland, and Britain and France declaring a war against Germany. They estimated 45 - 60 million people were killed, 6 million Jews were murdered in Nazi concentration camps, apart of Hitler's "Final Solution" which we now call Holocaust. 
WWII was fought between the Axis Powers which is Germany, Italy and Japan, and the Allied Powers which is Britain, United States, Soviet Union and France. It was was the most deadliest war in all of human history. WWII ended in 1945 with the surrender of the Axis Powers, about a week after the Allies accepted Germany's surrenders Adolf Hitler committed suicide.

~ Bonus Facts ~

- Millions of Germans were imprisoned and killed because they didn't fit the image of the 'perfect German'.
- Around the same time Germany fought for the power of Europe, Japan wanted to control Asia and the Pacific.
- Most countries remained neutral through the war.
- The Untied States didn't join the war until 1941 when Japan attacked them.
- France had more guns, tanks and soldiers then Germany in 1940.

Christchurch Football Club

Hey guys i'm back with another blog today. Today I will be talking about the Christchurch Football Club (CFC for short). I am writing about CFC because it is very interesting. CFC is the oldest rugby club in New Zealand! It was founded in 1863. It is the second oldest in the world next to Blackheath in the UK. The club played by there own rules for a couple of years, until in 1870 when rugby was introduced to NZ by Charles John Monro. The Christchurch Football club isn't just for playing rugby. In the winter when rugby is on they also have a number of CFC netball teams. They also have the Christchurch Football Squash there too. I play Netball and Squash for CFC I used to play rugby for them too.

Here are some pictures of the club:
