Swimming Sports by Isabella

10.3.17        Swimming Sports

Last Friday, Senior Swimming Sports was held. This year I spent most of my time in the pool. I thought swim sports was really fun this year.

I had to wait a while for my first race. I sat snuggled in my towel when I was waiting. The first event was freestyle. I came second in the heat, but I got disqualified. I also competed in two lengths freestyle, and came third.

I didn’t place anything in breaststroke, thougth. In backstroke, I placed second in the heat and went through to the semi-final. I came third in the semi-final, so I didn’t go to the final.

I enjoyed swim sports this year. I look forward to it next year.

2.3.17             Bike Reflection

For the last three weeks, Claire from team energize has come into school to talk to us how to do things with our bikes.

On the first week, we learnt simple things like the ABC check. The ABC check help us make sure our bikes were safe to ride. We also checked our helmets fitted correctly and everything was tight.

Then we did some games. We played the box game, the slow race and lots of other games.

Kahikatea team is very grateful for Claire coming in and helping us with biking techniques.
