Swimming Sports

Swimming sports was awesome I got really good places, I LOVED ALL OF THE STROKES, Freestyle, Backstroke, and Breaststroke, it was so amazing.

 My first stroke was freestyle I was excited and nervous, but more excited because I have done swimming sports for four years! Koka Ngaire (my teacher) called some of the year six contestants, only about 5 because there is not as many lanes as there is year sixes. The only people I can remember who I was facing were Bay and Rasmus. When Koka Rozie (a year 4&5 classes teacher) pressed the buzzer off we went. Bay was passing me for the first length, but when I tumbled Bay didn't, so we were equal but when he was getting out of juice I went as fast as I could, then I hit the wall then one WOOHOO! My principal Koka Nolian gave me a red stick which it means I came 1st place.

The next heat was backstroke and I wasn't feeling to good about this because I'm not that good at it. and I have the fastest swimmer in the school Mako. When it was our turn we hoped in the pool and put our hand on the bar of the diving medal stand then the buzzer went off BZZZZ! Off we went. We have to do two laps of Backstroke and I was nailing it on my first lap but on my second, I ran out of juice and I started to slow down and Mako past me, I came second but it still was worth a shot.

The last stroke was breaststroke I thought we had to push off the wall but we are aloud to dive in. When Koka Rozie pressed the button I dove in, but I dove in to early so it was a close race. When I was swimming for my first lot of my stroke I'd forgotten it was breaststroke and I accidently put my arm over my body to do freestyle but I got reminded by myself in the water because everyone else was doing it. I was pushing REALLY hard when I put my arms and my legs together to take my first stroke of Breaststroke. I think I was smashing the race. We get to do 1 lap of breaststroke but I felt that I could do two so I won because it was so short. By the way when mum was videoing me she yelled OLIVER WOOHOO! and THAT'S MY BOY OLIVER! also, YOU CAN DO IT OLIVER YAAAAAAAAA!!!!! and all of the parents were staring at her like she was crazy she was so embarrassing.
