Swimming Sports

Last Monday all the school went to Nayland Pool for swimming sports.

What different events were there?
Maddash, flutterboard, freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and relays.

What was the class relay like?
It would have been freezing for the swimmers and it was really really exciting to see which class was going to win and which classes were not. When Mr C. clapped the bricks together the first people from each class jumped in the pool. But on the first go they did a false start (except for Room 6). They all had to come back to the start. We redid the race and wanted Room 6 to win. Anushka was the last swimmer and she had to race as fast as she could to catch up. Luckily, she beat the other classes and Room 6 came in first.

Bo felt really nervous with everyone screaming for her team. Stephanie also felt really scared because of the freezing cold pool. She felt she might freeze to death!

What was the teacher's versus students versus parents race like?
It was a bit unfair because the kids got a head start. But in the end the teachers won and they were dressed like ninjas! How cool is that?

By Room 6.
Swimmers working hard in the pool!
