John McBeth

A couple of weeks ago, before the Olympics started, my Grandad John came to our assembly. It was called Room 4's assembly, but we think that it should have been called the "McBeth Assembly". John is a commentator and at the Olympics he is normally in charge of the swimming. He has been to many different Olympic Games. John told us some very interesting things about the London Olympics. He talked about the Olympic rings. He talked about many of our athletes who have been to past Olympics and some who have been competing in these Olympic Games. For his job, John makes announcements and needs to know how to pronounce hundreds of athletes names. Thank you Grandad John for coming to our school. Love Lauchlan and all of Room 4.
