Swimming Recount
We started with a lovely morning doing swimming. Our classroom 13 went to the Glen Innes pools. Filled with anticipation, we walked our way out of the school grounds and waited for the others. While staring into space I couldn’t wait to swim.
There were tests to see which group we were in, so me and my friend Nikita were the first to start the test. “I hope we make it into the same group!” I said to Nikita. Group one and the instructor's name was Ben. Group two and the other instructor’s name was Natalie and last but not least was group three and her name was Olivia.
The Group that I made it in was group one. This group was fun because so many of my friends were in this group. We had a lot of fun learning things and sometimes we would be playing around. As I was in the front of the line I was the first to swim. Loudly the talented instructor shouted at me, “Kick Faster!”
Sadly swimming ended with a breathing game under the water and I won. “It’s time to go back to school” Miss King yelled. I am looking forward to doing some swimming lessons again next week.

My Tissue Artwork Sentences
As Art Alive was our topic for this term we started a morning off with art. The art we were going to create was to make flowers with tissue. Filled with excitement to start our art, I got ready to paint.
Folding the tissues into different shapes, I made a stem for my flower.
While I cautiously glued my stem to the cardboard, I began to make the petals.
To finish creating my work, I needed to start by painting over the tissues.
