Trainees In The Water

It was such a beautiful day for a swim in the pools or beach, but any ways I was at school working. I’m in room18, we had an opportunity to go to Glen Innes pools. We had to walk a short distance to arrive at our destination, the pools. It was a little bitter inside the building, but it wasn’t to much for me.

Once we got there we got change in the changing rooms in to our togs. We had a quick rinse, then we jumped in the pool. We did a circuit up and down waiting for the others to come in the pool. When we started to do the proper laps, Mr. Barks called our names two by two. What if you did at least six or seven laps? Would you be tired I know I would be? Ding! Mary donged her head because some one was on the left side of the pool on the wrong side. I did not know how many rounds I did that period.

It felt like a competition to me, I wish it was a race because it would of been an enjoyable activity. I thought I did 4 laps,but it was a minimum of 11 or 14 laps I did. I had a stitch which tried to stop my, but it didn’t keep from going on.

It was not long until I stopped so I could go on the other side. I was trying my hardest to swim passed 200metres, that was like my goal. I did beat my goal and just passed it. It was time to get out of the pool because we had to go back to school.

I really loved that day I hope another wonderful day like that happens again.
