Athletics day

Athletics Day!

On Tuesday last week, my school had athletics day. We could dress up in our house colour. I’m in a blue house with one of my best friends. We went and watched the year 0-2 sprints. We were going over to do our long jump.  Long jump is my favourite.

Long Jump

I was the 4th in line for the long jump. It was only 1 minute and it was my turn. My teacher said “ ready set go and I was off. Running so fast then jumped over the gap and into the sandpit. I didn’t make it to inter school. Then we went onto sprints. 

Sprints

My year group but only the girls got put into lanes to race in. Ready set go, I ran as fast as I could but I only came 4th. That was good for me. Then I went into the tent and watched my friends. Another one of my best friends came 4th. My other friend came 1st. I was so nervous for the high jump, that was what we were doing next.  

High Jump

One of the teachers took us over to high jump. We all lined up behind the blue cone. I was so nervous because I was second in line. My dad came over to watch my high jump. My dad cheered me on and I think I did better than last year. I hit the pole so I went down a cone to the yellow cone. Then it was my turn and I made it, so I was so happy. But when It was my turn again I hit the pole so I was out for the high jump.  That made me so sad. I was so excited for the ball throw. 

Ball throw

I was the first person in line for the ball throw so that made me so nervous. But I was so happy because I don’t like athletics day. It was my turn. Mine was good for never doing ball throw practice. But I got out straight away. 

In the morning I felt so scared for Athletics. At the end of the day I felt so happy for all the placings I came. Athletics was so fun and I still don’t like it.
