SWIMMING



On Monday Room 16 went to the Glen Innes pools to learn how to swim. On the first day we all went swimming you had to bring your tog’s and a towel to go swimming.

After lunch we had to grab our bags and sit on the mat until Mr Somerville told everyone to go and line up outside. After he had locked the door everyone began to walk and as we got halfway to the pools this piece of rubbish came by my leg as I was walking I began to kick it all the way to the pools.

When we got to the pools we walked inside and then everyone started to run to the changing rooms to get dressed. When I went into the changing rooms mostly everyone was dressed but me because I had lots of things to take off and then to put on my togs. Well when I had came out you had to sit on the bench and wait for the other kids to come out of the pool.

When everyone came out you had to get in pairs of twos and sit by each other. When you have done that you had to get into the pool and the instructors teaching you would see if you are a good or bad swimmer.

If you get the number 1 that means you need help, the number 2 means you're getting there and 3 means you're a good swimmer. I hope I get to learn how to swim as good as the teacher who is teaching me!
