The Olympics
Tell us where the Olympics are being held this year. Tell us a few facts about this City (you may have to research!)
How many sports are represented in the Olympics - list a few of them that are not that popular in NZ.
What are you looking forward to watching and why?
In the Olympics, New Zealand will be against other countries around the world.  The Olympics are being held in Rio. Rio is a huge seaside city in Brazil, famous for its beaches. It's Carnival festival, featuring parade floats, costumes, and samba is considered the world’s largest festival.
Archery, Badminton, Table tennis and Boxing are some examples of sports held at the games.
I am looking forward to seeing how New Zealand goes.
