On a peaceful Friday morning it became my favourite day... it was senior school swimming sports!!!
It's great to get out in the pool and try your best.
Mrs Hobbs called ''The people that want to do two lengths of the pool please come up to the marshaling area''. I had never done two lengths of the pool, so I was very shy. As I walked up I said to myself ''come on Keira you can do this''. I was shaking with fear. I sat down by all the other students, waiting to start their race. I was scared I was not going to make it. Mrs Hobbs came up to me and said ''What is your house?'' So I said ''Kakapo'." So Mrs Hobbs put me in lane 5, I was at the back of the line.When I was at the back of the line I stared at everyone else that was racing finally it was my turn my heart was beating faster than a tiger charging through the grass. Mrs N shouted on your marks Oh No i thought get set OK i have got to panic now Go Crash!as i dived in to the pool.I swam with great fear swish swash swishy swash so I swam smash my hands touched the end of the pool.Another length I thought but there was NO time to talk because it's a race. My legs were all like jelly. My legs were floting down but I did a quick save and pushed them up I keped pushing though the water and my finally toughed the end of the pool I came last but I still felt proud because I had swam to lengths none stop so I thought I should be proud.I knew I could do it!
GO KAKAPO!!!

ReplyDeleteI love your use of 'writing gems' in this piece of writing Keira. Great use of similes and onomatopoeia. Well done!
