What I have done this year

 

Our new Classroom

I hear the banging bounce across the walls in the classroom.

As the hammer digs nails into the wood it sounds  like fireworks that just exploded.

The sandpaper sounds like a cat sharpening her claws on a toy.

I see the peach coloured saw dust float down from the top of the building.

I hear a noise that goes BANG!!!!!!!!!!! like a drum.

I see the planks cross over each other like a ball of wool.

Our new classroom.

 

W.A.L.T.  use interesting words to describe. The word I liked the best in this poem is exploded!!

A word I really liked in Lily’s poem was Swish Swash.

Cross-Country.

 

Cross- Country

As the middle school and up walks slowly to Farndon park on September the 6th, I felt nervous. Today we are doing cross country. In five, or so minutes we get to a huge field, the field we are going to run on. Then all the kids go and sit down in their age groups. After we all settled down Mr Basset told us the the 8 year old group was going first. After their warm up Mr Basset shouted ready...set....GO!!!!! The girls raced to each 4 rugby post and around the tennis court back to the Finish line. The crowd cheered like crazy!! Cerys came 1st. My friend, Lily came 7th. She did an awesome job, and so did all the other people!!!!

Next up were the 8 year old boys. They did warm ups and then Mr Basset shouted ready.... set.......GO!!!!!!!!! and banged the two pieces of wood together. The boys raced over the field like wind, around 4 rugby posts and around the tennis court and straight to the finish line. 

Now it was our turn, the 9 year olds turn. We started of with a couple of warm ups. Then as we got in line, ready to race Mr Basset shouted ready.... set.......GO!!!!!!!!!! I raced as fast as I can around four posts around the tennis court and back to the finish line squeaking and puffing. Mr Basset asked me if I wanted to finish the race and I said no, so I watched  the others finish the race. After the 10y/11y raced, Mr Basset told us to line up in our group, put our drink bottle away and put our shoes on. When we were all ready we headed back for lunch, and that is how my day went on September the 6th, Cross-Country.

On Tuesday the 28th of February at Clive school Room 6 got changed in the bathroom into our togs. Next we lined up and walked across the field to the pool and got into our swimming groups. Then the teachers started calling the groups. There was about four or five groups. While the others were in the pool my group and I had to sit and wait. Eventually it was our turn. The seals was the name of my group we were going to do a three length medley First brestroke Second freestyle and Third backstroke. The teachers had to pick 4 year 4's for the race which was in a couple of days.The four people were Cerys,Naomi,Stella and I. Finally we of changed and walked back to class and did our next subject.
