I KNOW HOW TO FIX IT! ..........please read
After much frustration I have finally found out why I can not comment on your posts (and why you can not comment on each others). To fix this all you have to do is remove the tick from the 'stay signed in' box when you log on to your account. Hope this makes sense!
Pinch and a PUNCH for the first of the month!
Drink bottle and towel (for a shower - you will need it and I will give you enough time) is a must for Monday's lesson!

I think everyone knows by now but if you do not I have the tickets for the Aus v NZ match on Sunday 30th October in Melbourne. Waiting on flight details and other costings. Hope to get a letter out to all before the end of the week. Obviously HP Netball get first preference for the trip but if you do not want to go or can not go it is not a problem. Chat tomorrow! Good night!
Sunday, July 3, 2011
Can not comment on your posts!
Aggghhhhhhhh! I have been trying to comment on your posts .....well at least three of you and it will not let me. Technical problems will be rectified soon. Maybe all of you are having the same problem thats why I have not heard from you!

Group Work for the Year!
Thanks to those that used class time productively today and to those that did not......I am a little disapopointed. I hope to see a better effort next time we work on this. I will have some extra tasks to give to one of the groups...GUESS WHICH ONE?
Wednesdays lesson .......please bring towel and toiletries for showering. I will give you enough time to do this. Too many smelly people leaving the gym to go to recess. Also display folders, fruit, drink bottles and a hand towel would be great.
Remember if you have any quotes or sayings you would like to be considered as our class 'mantra'please give to Dayna as soon as possible.

is what keeps the average down.”

Replace fluids and REST!
PLEASE REPLACE FLUID! You lose a lot of fluid during exercise and ideally, you should be replacing it during exercise, but filling up after exercise is an easy way to boost your recovery. Water supports every metabolic function and nutrient transfer in the body and having plenty of water will improve every bodily function. Adequate fluid replacement is even more important when you are feeling run down and sick.
Your body is made up of mostly of water. Approximately 85% of your brain, 80% of your blood and 70% of your muscle is water. Every cell in your body needs water to live. You can see how important water is to you.
Water helps remove the dangerous toxins that your body takes in from the air you breathe, the food you eat and the chemicals used in the various products you use on your skin and hair. Other things water does for your body is to cushion your joints. Water carries oxygen and nutrients into all your cells. Water also helps regulate your body temperature.
You need water to keep your metabolism working properly. In order for this to happen, there is a certain level of water in each of our bodies that we need to maintain. If we don't keep that amount, our bodies will start to dehydrate. An easy way to think of it is to think of your car's need for oil. If your oil level gets too low, your engine will start to run rough. If you totally deplete your oil supply in your car, your engine will stop running. Same with your body. Therefore it is easy to see why it is very important to drink six to eight glasses of water a day.
Some of the things that may happen to your body if you do not have enough water are that your blood pressure can fall to dangerously low levels. Blood clots may form. Your normal kidney function is impaired. You may get terrible constipation.
Some of the signals your body gives you of a low water level are constipation, terribly dry skin, and increased incidence of urinary tract infections and reoccurring headaches.

On Saturday just gone, at Karrinyup Shopping Centre (yes, Western Australia) the Variety Club Youth Choir organized a FLASH MOB where they all were incognito in the Food Hall, and started standing up in groups singing "We are Australian."
The purpose was to raise money for the Queensland floods. Each time it is clicked on, money is raised thru Google ads, SO PLEASE WATCH!!!!!! It is a beaut way of supporting those poor Aussies who are suffering because of the floods. Even if you don't listen or can't hear it, click on the link and let it load a little bit. Your click will be counted in dollars.
