Nathan Busch
Age 10 of Prebbleton One day the New Zealand rugby team was going on a tour to Australia. The New Zealand rugby team were in the bus going to the airport. Once they got there they were late so they had to to go quickly. They just got there in time. The got on the plane and they were telling each other jokes. The plane ran out of petrol and then down, down went the plane, crash into a tree, crash, bang. They were in the country somewhere. The pilots were very badly hurt. Half the New Zealand rugby team were unconscious. A rescue party came and took them to Sydney to play Australia and they beat Australia 24 to 6. They got back to New Zealand safely. When they got back to New Zealand there was a big celebration for them all.
