Term 2 Week 9

I did my best run. By Jessica Y2 I loved the run around the school. There was a river. I jumped it. By Thomas Y3 I went to the Inter-school Cross country. I liked it. People won and lost. By Henry Y3 On Friday it was the exciting Cross Country. There were six schools. First the year ones ran and then the year twos, threes and fours. I was starving. The track was hard. We had to run through cones. By Tyla Y3

Our School Fun Run I was as hot as a dog and had just done it. I was a very hot boy and I am lucky that I had an Up'n'Go in my lunchbox. I drank it after the Fun Run. I drank it before I got to my Nana's car. I was steaming and my Nana said that I could be an Olympic runner and be as famous as... and get lots of money. I could be a millionaire and be very rich and spend it on my Olympic days. I would be a very good runner and go all around the world. I hope that I win and get a trophy to keep. When i am older I will look up and see it and it will be shiny like gold. I will keep it shiny and in good condition. By I'zyah Year 3

 * Term 2 week 8**

Week 6 On Monday we went to the fire station. We saw heaps of firefighter gear.There was breathing gear, so that when the firefighters went into a fire they could breathe air in when it is smokey. We saw heaps of hoses. Everyone got a turn to sit on the seat in the truck. Firemen have this alarm that if they get lost or hurt they can push it. A magnetic key turns it off. When we first came, Mark put on his boots, trousers, jacket, and a flash mask, so that when they go into a fire they don't burn themselves. Then he put on his breathing gear then his helmet and lucky last his gloves.I was sad when we had to leave. By Jennifer Year 3
