The big day

One hot boiling day I walked down the slope and into the lovely  pool gate. The first  thing I did when I got there  was sit down with my class. first up is number one said miss mitchell in a loud voice so everyone with a number one on their hand had to go line up by miss mackinnon  the first five got in there long stretchy  lane  and it was crystal clear freezing cold and blue. BANG!!the clapper went I swam and swam until finally it was finished .I came first. When I was in the water I herd people clapping  like a herd of elephants stomping away. I was in was number 4 aswell when I was in it felt like I was at the rocky shore.

  1. Wow Madeline - this is a great story. I love the descriptive language that you use. I think I was part of the herd of elephants trumpeting their trunks and stomping their feet for you and your friends! Love Mum xo
