My Greek vase!

My Vase
This is my vase I made for the 2012 Olympics and for the hall because of the team five production. I used brown, a gold kinda colour and yellow. My vase had to tell a story from the 2012 Olympics. Here is my story.  Mr Moriarty got the idea from Parkvale Room 5 Kidd-li-Winks's blog.  

Valerie Adams throws the ball and it travels through the air. Then she won silver with her throw. Later on down the track she found out that she actually won gold because the Belarusian cheated.

Valerie Adams!


Valerie Adams

Valerie Adams is a gold medal shotput athlete. She is the reigning women's Olympic champion and three-time World champion, two-time Commonwealth and World Indoor champion. She currently holds the New Zealand, Oceanian, Commonwealth and equal World Championship records with a personal best throw of 21.24 metres.

Valerie is one of seven athletes to win World Championships in the youth, junior and senior athletic events. She met Kirsten Hellier in 1998 and this proved to be a turning point in her life. The pair combined for the next 11½ years until their relationship broke up in 2010. In that time Hellier, a former javelin champion, was Adam's’ friend, mentor, adviser and coach.

Valerie was born in Rotorua New Zealand on the 6th of October 1984, to a Tongan mother and an English father (Sydney Adams). She showed potential at several sports, because not only was she exceptionally tall and strong, but she was nimble and athletic as well.
