“Are you nervous?” I asked Hine
“Kind of” she said.
“Year 6 girls competitive please come and line up” Mrs Naden said. So I lined up and waited nervously in line. Then I carefully stepped on to the slippery diving block and saw all the people in the crowd. It felt like all their eyes were on me. Then “beep!” I dive in and feel the warmish water hit my face, I frantically swam freestyle all the way to the end, I had hit the wall.
I hoped out of the crystal clear water. Then sat on the grand stand with Hine. “Competitive backstroke please go and line up” Mr H said, so I raced to the cold diving block. Next I hear a loud “beep!” In my ear, I dive in with a splash. “Swim, swim, swim” I think in my head “thud” I crashed into the wall, I see Miss Hickling handing me a green block, so I walk over to the diving block again but this time I had a swarm of butterflies in my stomach. “Beep!” I heard it for the third time. I dive in and swim to the end with the crowd cheering, then I hopped out with no block.
I step onto the diving block for the last time “beep!” I heard the whistle blow I dived in and swam to the end. I reached the end and that was my 2020 swimming sports done. After a while it was time to walk back to school.
We were on the way back to school. I was happy with that swimming spots, it was fun. “I like walking this way” I thought to myself.
Back at school after a long walk I said to my friends “today was fun.”
