Emma Twigg Came To Our School!!

 W.A.L.T  Reflect on exiting experiences.

Today we meet Emma Twigg a rowing gold medallist. Emma walked into the hall and everyone was amazed that they got to see Emma. We did a welcoming haka that the kappahaka performed. Then we sang the national anthem.  Emma Twigg came up onto the stage and told us about what she does in her life and how she is so good at rowing. Emma told us that she trains 5 hours everyday. After that people asked her questions like why did you start rowing and heaps of other questions.

 Emma Twigg Proves People Wrong

By Paige M                                                       .

Emma Twigg won the Olympic gold medal for New Zealand in Tokyo Japan last friday. 

"I can't believe it. Honestly, crossing the line it was disbelief,"

When the race started, Emma Twigg was coming 2nd. When they got to half way some of the other countries started slowing down so Emma Twigg went off and took over! It was really unexpected when the other countries started to slow down and Twigg went into action and came 1st.

Twigg was born in Napior on March the 1st 1987.She was 2014 world champion and won gold in her fourth Olympics in Tokyo July 2021.Previous  Olympic appearances were in 2008 (ninth place), 2012 (fourth place), and 2016 (fourth place).She is a  New Zealand Olympic women single scull medalist.

In conclusion…

We can't wait to see Emma back in the Olympics. She did a great job this year!Hopefully she can add to her colton of metals when she crosses the line again!
