Caritas challenge

In term 2 week 3 our hub did the Caritas Challenge. The Caritas Challenge involves picking either the sweat it challenge, move it challenge or the live it challenge. The sweat it challenge is when you people bring in used toys and sell them on a market day. Live it challenge is when you live like the people in Timor Leste that includes staying over night and the move it challenge is when nonstop sport for a certain number of hours.
Our hub picked the live it challenge and to make the day more exciting we also did a mini sweat it challenge and a mini move it challenge. We then got put into groups to organise what we were going to do during in these challenges. I got put in the mini sweat it. First our group made a time for the market to begin on day we were doing the live it challenge. Then we got our school to bring in any second hand toys, books and games to sell on the market. Some of us got to stay and help with the market but I didn't because I had my sisters Netball that I had to go to. But I heard the market went really well and lots of people showed up to buy some the toys. In the mean time the mini move it group had to set up all the different sport games. We got to choose what sport we did, the sports were soccer, rugby, doge ball and many more. I chose rugby but I forgot my mouthguard so I just picked another sport. We also had to play the same sport for 3 hours. It all started at 9:00 with a mass and a anti bulling assembly where we watch oat the goat solving bulling problems. Then a guess speaker came to speak to us about that City Mission. He talked about people that were living on the streets and how we can help. After that the mini sweat it team had to go and set up the second hand market. At 12:30 the move it group went to set the games up for they challenge. After lunch Mairehau students came along to do the move it challenge. Then the games began it was so much fun but as quick as a flash it was time for me to go home because like I said I had rugby the next day so I wasn't allowed to stay the night. I would say that 90% of people stayed for the whole night.
I hope you like my blog post about the Caritas challenge. Have you ever done the one of the challenges? If not you should because I had a so much fun. Bye
