Kia ora whanau, as you all know the Commonwealth games in Dehli have been going on, and we have been doing some work on it.

My brother and I told our parents of the work we are doing. They told us that they have bronze medals from the Commonwealth games held in New Zealand in 1990 (as you can see in the photos). But it's not exactly the same as you would think, because my parents got their medals for playing an instrument in the brass band that played at the opening ceremony. (They didn't even compete for the medals). The 34 other band members all got bronze as well. New Zealand couldn't afford 36 gold medals.
