Swimming Sports

Yesterday our school went to the Ngaruawahia pools to have our Swimming Sports.
After lunch, we had our house relays. Before we started, Isabella jumped into the ice blue, clear water. Mr Emms blew the loud white whistle. Isabella ran as fast as she could to the other side of the pool and tagged Logan. After Logan had got tagged, he ran like Usain Bolt. When he got to the other side, he tagged Laken. After Logan tagged Laken, she swam across the pool and tagged Josh. After Josh got tagged, he dived into the pool and started to swim freestyle. When he reached the end, he reached up and tagged my hand. I felt his wet and slippery hand. I dived in. After I dived in, everyone was cheering and saying, “Go, Nat, go!” When I took a breath, I heard cheering, so I swam faster. In about 20 seconds, I reached the end.

The BFG

The BFG is a book about a giant who captures a Sophie, a little girl. The BFG keeps her in a cave.
I think the BFG is a good book because it is an adventurous book.
My favourite character is the Blood Bottler because he is the strongest. 
This book reminds my of when my brother fights with me.
I think every one would like this book.

At Port Charles

On Tuesday, after school, we drove to Port Charles. It took us three hours and 25 minutes to get there.
When we got to the batch, Hunter was asleep, but I woke him up. He looked around and said, "Where am I?"

We all said, "Port Charles." 

At 5 o'clock, the Beethams turned up. Flynn and Regan jumped out and said, "Let's go to the maze," and I answered. "Yes."
