Swimming
Swimming
Eagerly waiting outside the pool, we all had to put on a life jacket. It was dump and clammy because it was wet. we all had to get a partner so we can help each other.
As soon as we all squeezed into the life jacket. Chris came to talk to us, Chris was a man who worked for water safety NZ. Chris came to try teach us to swim with a life jacket. On and how to swim in the water. He is here for the rest of the term.
When I first hopped in the pool my teeth were chattering. I herd a lot of screaming and squealing mostly from the girls. The first thing we all did was the help position I crossed my hands over my chest I crossed my legs and I lent back.We learnt the help position so it keeps us warm and it helps us conserves our energy.
After a while we all had to get in a huddle and sing the national anthem. Chris was gently pushing us around.While we were floating in a circular motion.

My Holiday
Early Thursday morning we got ready to leave for vacation in Tonga for two weeks holiday. The sun hadn’t come up yet so it was as cold as a freezer! We packed our bags and my auntie drove us to the airport. On plane ride over my ears popped because we were so high up in the atmosphere. When we landed in Tonga I felt the wheels hit the ground and I was filled with excitement! Even though I could see clouds through the side windows, I could tell that it was going to be a good day. One of my favourite things about Tonga was the shiploads of coconut they had that I could eat.The first day we went to the beach we woke up with the sun was shining through the window. It was going to be a sunny bright day, great weather for swimming.
We drove up to the Good Samaritan beach we jumped out of the car, ran down to the water and dived in! Surprisingly goosebumps covered my skin because the water was cold. When we got there we ate before we swam.When we were at Oholei I played in the sand and made drawings with a stick I found on the beach. While I was collecting shells my mum came over and said if I want to go into the Hina Cave. It was only me and my cousins who were swimming, my mum didn't want to swim yet. Then I came out of the water and I was digging and collecting shells too. While I was collecting shells my mum came over and said if I want to go into the Hina Cave.
The Hina cave is where they go and do the floor show. We went in and I tried blowing this shell We went in and I tried blowing this conch shell. I made my own beats on the drum. I asked the owners grandson what the drum was made of. He told me they took the cows skin off and stretched it over the wood of the drum.
Once we came back we had to go have showers to wash all the sand from our hair. When we got back I felt exhausted and was glad to be home.THE END

Jesse Martin - Storm
Jesse Martin
As the wind was howling Jesse Martin, the sailor, was grinding the winch. Big waves nearly blew him overboard. They were so huge and big that it was splashing and spraying the water into his face. “Ahhhhhh I never thought this would be so hard.” he cried. The violent wind whipped spray of the sea, slapping his face like an angry lady.

While I was waiting anxiously I felt nervous because I was too scared of heights. I shouted out to my belayer 'Can I come down now?' So I came down. Then we moved over to the King-
kong climbing wall. As we were walking around Dante wanted to go on the dinosaur wall. So she went and tried climbing it. While she was climbing she got up to the top and reached the head of the dinosaur.

Swimming
While I was gliding through the water it felt like my lungs were screaming.
I kept gliding until I suddenly stood up, gasping for a breath. Luckily I had
made it to the other side of the pool. I really had fun when I was in the pool
gliding. My favourite thing is doing the back stroke

Capture the Flag
On Friday afternoon Room 15 went to Room 14 to play Capture the Flag. First we had to listen attentively to Miss King when she precisely explained the rules. She divided us into teams then we all played.
We were all lined up waiting for Miss King to say "Go". We ran and I did not get tagged and I got in where the flag was. I gave the flag to Logan, he passed it to Starford and he ran as fast as he could to the other side of our field.
When it was the end of the game I felt exhausted and sweaty because I ran and passed the flag to Starford and he got us a try.
