Swimming Sports

1.The pools-Nervous

2.The race-Nervous

3.The result-Proud

Nervously trotting to a herd of cheering children.  Flags swaying in the gusty wind.  Red, green, Blue, Yellow yip that's my house.  I sat down on the solid surface.  Waiting patiently for my race.  Sweltering sun making my skin turn red.  Sliding across the compact tarmac to take shelter from the flaming sun.  10 year old boy’s 1 length freestyle.  That’s me.  I traipsed to the wooden seat.  Waiting I strolled up onto the starting stand.  Am I reading.

Butterflies fluttering in my tummy.  On your marks, get set, go!.  I soared through the air like a fierce falcon and through the transparent water.  Observing around under water.  They were catching up.  So I swam as swift as I could go.  Children cheering and parents shouting.   Nearly at the finish.  I gripped onto the the finish.

Shooting up from under the water.  Pouncing up on to the  tough surface.  My legs were really exhausted.  I stood up and they gave me my time and a yellow block.  The yellow block means I got 3rd place.  I was really proud of what I did and place I got.

Writing - Tomatoes

In my mouth, the mushy tomatoes gets demolished.  Smashing their red skin off.  The yellow button starts to break.  The seeds linger to get out of jail.  Playing a game of soccer in my mouth.  The flesh addresses the seeds to escape.  Hanging off their stalk that's where they will be until they turn red.  A tomatoes is a mouthwatering vegetable. 

Dingy on the roof

On the weekend some stupid person put the syndicate 2 dingy on the syndicate three toilets roof.  This morning we went down to watch Matua Manu and the caretaker of Saint Patrick's school come and take the dingy off the roof.

Hangi

Pawa gliding across the air.  Fire trying to escape from the bottom.  Raw heihei pledging not to get burnt to perfection.  Dead ashes lying on the ground.  Baskets getting burned.  Metal barrels getting darker and darker as seconds past.  Wahie getting chucked on as their family pasts away.  Kahatu getting sandwiched from the firewood.  I wish I bought a ticket.

Our trip to the Courier & Space Center

Today we went on a class trip. My favourite part was the light thing at the space centre.

Two things I learnt:

• How much news papers they do a day.
• What is the process of the paper.

Dave has a great website here where I can learn more.
