Education

THE ZZ Championship is a mind and sports game for every attractive class. We therefore decided to try our forces, THE 5 th class of the Gaigalavas primary school.
To get into the semi-final we had to make a video - a legend about one of our treasure. Our video was about Luban Lake and a goldfish who won three elections. The creative work was welcomed and we got into the semi-final that took place at the Daugavpils Olympic Centre.
There was a spirit of competition in Daugavpils, the atmosphere, though strained, but there was positive emotions. The popular contest manager Uģis Joksts and his friends, ZZ “advertisement face” and zer, took care of the positive, sporting atmosphere. We were very good at the semi-final. We tried all the strength and got 13 th. Unfortunately, it was not enough to get to the finals at Jurmala (the first 11 seats on the final). Soon, however, the “second chance” was announced. Once again, we had to make a video, this time about why we deserve to go to THE ZZ championship. In this video, we sang THE ZZ championship anthem, danced, gymnasted, tried, and the twin and the twin made Cynthia. It was really good, because we were among the six Latvian schools in our age group, which, thanks to the second chance, was invited to fight in the Jurmala finals. We were all very happy and pleased.
So much school youth together we had seen only in song and dance festivals. 180 Latvian friendly classes gathered in Jurmala. THE first task OF THE ZZ Championship was to prepare the air dragons together. The work was interesting, creative, but not difficult. I watched our dragon rise in the sky, greeting the sunny day. Name of the second stage – “traveling Latvia!” Here we needed knowledge of Latvia, ingenuity, luck and strength. But most importantly, cohesion, good team game and collaboration. The third, i think, is the most difficult stage – orientation and alpianism. With Tablet PCs, we searched for the locations, and we could only get the points to our team if we answered the question correctly, so our knowledge and erudition were also tested. But the most extreme adventure – climbing into the alpine wall. Four droughts – eu, Cynthia, Guna and John – performed this really difficult stage. It was hard, but we reached the summit and made a friendly match.
There must be 10 participants in the team and we're just ten! This means that we had to start all at all stages. THE ZZ championship broke our class, made us more tolerant and more careful, we are now “one for all, and all for one.”
In the final, Mick Dukurs and Aminata spoke, listening to the popular Eurovision song “Love injected”. The back was nice, we were tired but satisfied. Although we did not get a high place in the final, we are grateful TO THE ZZ championship organisers: goldfish and youth centre Avantis! We also thank THE management and parish administration OF Gaigalavas for the opportunity to enjoy the spirit of competition and the positive emotion gamma! Next year, we'll be trying again to get into THE ZZ championship finalists, because it's a great competition that gives a great dose of friendship to the entire class!
