Horseback riding.

Every weekend I go with my family to a countryside.  We go to a village called "Morozovka".  There we have an opportunity to rest and I also enjoy going there because they have a lot of horses and I can also practice my horse back riding skills.
In Morozovka they have a quite big stable with 8 horses.
Every weak I go there I practice my skills and also volunteer to clean horses,  bring them food and water.
I am hoping that in 2 or three weeks I will be able to go to the countryside again and precise more.
And improve my skills.





Parents Evening

At the parents Evening,  which was at the start of the year I helped to set up the chairs and was making coffee for the teachers. Afterwards I was also showing to parents where are the rooms and the teachers. There was one parent who couldn't speak English,  so I was translating teachers opinion on his daughter.  We went to all of the etchers room and I think that i developed new skills because before I only translated Russian text to English however now I found it to be more harder to audition.
I found it first to be challenging however I also enjoyed helping parents.

Swimming 2

As the activity pat of my CAS I chose to do swimming every week.   So far I have improved my front crawl and backstroke techniques and breathing correctly while swimming.
I also learned how to do breaststroking.
I found it to be rather harder that the other two techniques because I was familiar with them before.
However from the other point of view it was one of the most easiest one in terms of breathing because in breaststroking you can keep the head out of the water almost all of the time.
For the next couple of weeks I am going to practice and improve these three techniques more and I am also planning to learn some other swimming techniques.
