  3. Hi Miss O'Shea Sakina here. What I thought that shocked me was when she said that she broke her back and she still did sport and another thing that she can jump as high as a double decker bus wow. If you were to do that how high do you think you would jump up to? blog ya later

  18. Heyya Class! What inspired me would probably be her patients when she was injured and her persistence she gave each time when she went training! I enjoyed it so much, and I hope she could come back one time! What did you learn?

  21. Hi Rachael, Mackenzie here. In my opinion the most expiring thing was when she said that she found a dairy under her bed when she was cleaning it out and she sat on her bed and opened it up! Inside there was her goals one of them was to go to the Olympics! And here she is now in the Olympics! What is your favorite sport? Blog Ya Later.

  22. Hi Rachael,
    Samantha here.
    What I took away from her was that if you keep on trying you can do anything, and if something stops you from doing what you love do there will always be something you never considered that may love even more!
    What do you think?
