Emma Twigg comes to NBC [my SCHOOL] on 17th of August 2021!

 W.A.L.T Reflect on exiting experiences.                                                                                                           TODAY AN A GOLD OLYMPIAN CHAMPION CAME TO OUR SCHOOL!! AND I TOUCHED THE GOLD MEDAL!

Sorry but it was a REALLY exiting thing to happen on TUESDAY! I mean I understand Monday and Fridays, BUT TUESDAYS!? Alright, alright I'll tell you what happend... I was a normal Tuesday morning. but everyone was exited for some reason and then the teacher said ''Everyone, to the hall!'' [or something like that] When we were in the hall we started to practice some songs.

And then Emma Twigg just waltz on in, like all casual and stuff but she was my FAVOURITE Olympian, then we did the Haka, I mean seriously in this premises! REALLY!? It was really loud and it made my ears hurt. And then after that we just had to do the national anthem! I mean without even a greeting to THE BEST OLYMPIAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD!? SERIOUSLY??

 After we FINALLY did a greeting, Emma twigg gave a speech about never giving up,  And after that we asked our questions  AFTER that we watched a cool video about Emma twigg. The teachers said that it was time to sing our last and final song it was Cover Me In Sunshine. As we walked out of the hall we got to say hi and bye to Emma twigg and got to touch and hold the medal! It was a fun experience to have and also how would you feel if you meet your favourite Olympian? Tell me in the comment section!

Emma Twigg Gets A Truly Deserved Gold!!

By Londyn C



Emma Twigg [Twigg],had won Gold in the Olympics 2020, single sculls rowing! And we never saw it coming! She started off a little cruisy and beat the other rowers one by one and then when she was in the lead she kicked into high gear!! 



"I didn't hear the hooter and thought I had stopped before the line"



To start off as a silver medalist and coming 1st in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics is a big jump and joined the Olympics after two disappointments. Finally got gold in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. She had set a world record, as she crossed the finish line. Twigg was born on March the 1st, 1987.Emma Twigg began rowing in 2001 for a Rowing Club and Napier Girls High School.She was born in Napier NZ by the way, and started rowing in 2001.


She was the 2014 world champion and won gold in her fourth Olympics in Tokyo in July. Twigg has retired from rowing twice, first for master-level studies and then after the 2016 Olympics, disappointed at having narrowly missed an Olympic medal for the second time. After two years of the boats, she started training again in 2018 and won silver at the 2019 World Rowing Championships. At the 2020 Summer Olympics, Twigg won gold in the women's single scull. 






Here is Twigg totally CRUSHING everybody with her awesome rowing skills!


In conclusion, Emma Twigg is awesome and is even better at rowing! She fully deserved getting that Gold! Mainly to conclude Emma twigg is a master level single sculls rower.
