Swimming Gif

gif maker Last week room 15 and room 19 went swimming, we had to walk to the pools which was not even near a kilometre away. There were three groups, I was in group two and my group was called average? The pool I swam in was 1 length long.

The instructor looked tired cause some boys were talking over her. She didn’t mind because she said if they did it wrong then it is their own fault. She had a loud voice though.

I really had fun, my favourite swimming technique was free style. I would like to swim again, but we’re now finished swimming. Thanks to the instructor (Lorina) for teaching us techniques that could make it easier for us to swim.

Writing Sample-Edited

On a Sunday, breezy night we sat in the middle of the woods having a camp fire, Also  Having so much fun.  Cleo was planning on pranking Selena and Elizabeth.  “Cleo, Where are you going?”, Selena shouted. “For a Walk” Cleo Replied as she turned around with a smirk on her face.  The family gathered around and sang the camp fire song.

After a while Selena and Elizabeth were getting worried about Cleo, so they took off in the woods without the adults knowing. “Ouch” Selena cries as she stepped on a glass. “What is glass doing here in the woods?”, Elizabeth asked? “Shhh.” Cleo whispered. Elizabeth and Selena didn't know it was Cleo. They were so frightened and scared. “Follow me”, the whispering person says. Selena and Elizabeth thought that the whispering person is trying to tell them where Cleo is, so they followed.

“Where are we going?” asked Elizabeth. “Shhh” Replied the whispering person. They kept on walking and walking until... They fell into a trap then Slimy water splashed all over them. Cleo came out and took a photo of their faces then shouted. “ First prank on camp, Should have seen your guys faces” Cleo laughs and pulls her tongue at them.

Elizabeth and Selena were really angry at her. “We were worried about you?” Selena says. “Really?” Cleo Replied. She walks towards them. “Come and give us a hug?” Elizabeth Says with a smirk on her face. Cleo ran and gave them a hug and also got slimed. They all started laughing.

They All headed back to camp and on the way they heard a whisper? “You guys are in trouble” They knew straight away it was their parents. Everyone started laughing. The girls had some milo then went to bed.

First Day At School

“ Annliz time to go!” Mum yelled as she packed my lunch. Extremely excitedly I ran out the door not noticing I was only wearing one sock. “Terrace End School, here I come!” I said with a manly voice. “ Shut up” Penelope yelled from the back.  

Arriving at school my heart was pounding so fast, I was really enthusiastic. I ran to the swings as my mum waved goodbye, I gave her a cheesy smile. As the bell rang I could hear kids screaming laughing, I could see them jumping off the playgrounds and running off. I didn't know what to do because they were all running in different areas. I thought it was time to move from the swings to the slide. As I walked towards the slide an old lady walked towards me.

I was so scared. She looked old and scary. She had a missing tooth and she had a bald patch. “ Hi, you must be Annliz....... Well, I'm your teacher “ She said with a granny voice. I ran in circles screaming as loud as a tigers roar.

Watching for a moment, She ripped her face off and it looked like she has Teleport into the past? “Hahaha, Annliz, Don’t be scared it’s only a mask and I’ll be wearing it for Halloween”, She explained. I ran towards her and introduced myself confidently, Then she took me inside.

On that one day, I met some friends and had a lot of fun. I really did enjoy myself and couldn't wait for the next day.
