Swimming Sports


Yesterday we went to swimming sports. I competed in all of the swimming strokes. The first one was freestyle BEEP the buzzer went and I kicked for the other side. I ended up coming last, but I didn't care because next was backstroke.

 
I went back to the grandstand. I sat there for a bit then went to backstroke. this was my best stroke which was a bit nervous for me. GET SET... BEEEEEEEEP. I heard the buzzer beep and set of for the other side. The water was splashing in my face, but I kept going and made to the end in third. It was the first two in which was disappointing I still did my best though.

After that there was breaststroke. I am actually good at the stroke it is just that I didn't know that before the race. I got up to the starting block and got ready. GET SET... BEEP!! I dived of the block and started swimming I kept going. My goggles started to slip near the end but I touched the wall and came out in fourth place. After that race I think I am starting to get better at breaststroke witch is good for my swimming.

That is swimming sports for 2020 and my last one at Wainui Beach School.

Back For 2020!

Hi i'm Robbie and i'm back for 2020 as a Year 6 (yes). in our first week it has been pretty cool with what the teachers have set up for us. Although I did miss the holidays, did you have a good holiday? Tell me in the comments. We have been straight back into the routine, swimming and quickwrites. We also did our time trial for surfing, I made it which was a relief for me.

 We got back into our buzz groups which means there is going to be some more teamwork. In our buzz groups we did a Tension game (we were in top three) and we did a balloon race at the hall. After that we did this game were you had to pull strings to make a cup tower which was a team building exercises . There was also quickwrites, which was Chocolate Vs Cheese. In all I had a good week back.
