Loseli Swimming

Have you ever been taught by an instructor before? Well class 9 and Miss Lavakula went to the Glen Innes Aquatic Center for swimming lessons.We have lessons every day and the past week we are going have swimming this week too.We stayed on the pools for an hour and a half or 30 minutes.Some adults and kids drowned because they can’t swim. New Zealand is surrounded by water that's why we have swimming pools to teach kids how to swim.

Group one have been learning about freestyle.We have to put our hands at the bottom the boards to make us float so we can’t sink. First we put our hands on the bottom, but our arms have to be straight on the board. Second the instructor  tells one person to go at a time.And then we have to do it again back and back to the wall. Third we did rocket arms then we do the same as the freestyle,we have to go back again.

I was tired about swimming because the instructor tells us lots of instructions.But one thing that I have enjoyed was swimming at the Glen Innes Aquatic Center.
If I rush a lot I will get very tired.So next time I hope I can do better then that.

Hansel and Gretel Rescue

Nikau the coldest palm in the world

Have you wondered why we have palm trees in New Zealand? Here is some information about this special tree.

Dictagloss week 8

The sun shone brightly as we walk quickly to our swimming lesson.I was feeling exhausted from from the brisk walk.As I diped my toes into the glistening water I felt a cold dolt run up my leg.I quickly dove into the pool and felt refreshed as if the day behind me has deserpeard.

Reflection:

I think I did well.
