Olympics











The Olympic games is a big sporting event where athletes from all over the world play many different sports. About 3,000 the first Olympics took place in Olympia, Greece.


About 118 years ago Baron Pierre de Coubertin founded the International Olympic Committee in 1894 and that was the beginning of the Modern Olympics. These games have a special symbol that is used in Olympia and at all other olympic games. Well it's a torch, This torch is lit on the grounds of Olympia, and will fly, sail, and be run across the world, held by our favourite celebrites, and eventually arrive at the heart of the new olympic staduim. I wish all the best to the athletes, and please BRING THE GOLD "NZ".
