Athletics Day


When I was 9 years old, our school had an Athletics Day. We all competed in lots of,events like High Jump, Long Jump, Vortex, Shot Put, Discus and Sprints.
First,it was a sunny day. We ran to the courts where heaps of crunchy leaves were. When all the colour houses were sitting down on the green tiger-turf courts, Mr K said, "March to the field."
St Anne, the yellow house, went first, then St Anthony, the blue house, St Francis, the green house, and Joseph, the red house .
Next, we did discus. I was feeling nervous. I threw the black discus 12 m. It went flying through the air. The grass was green and wet. It made holes in the ground. I came first in my age group.There were marks where it went in to the ground. 

Finally, it was the sprints. We lined up in our age group. Girls raced then the boys raced. I ran as fast as a cheatah. I smoked them all. I came first in the 80m, 100m, 200m.
It was a fun day, but I was very tired when I got home from school that afternoon. I came first in everything.

Cameron's Pet Day

When I was nine years old, our school held a Pet Day .
First, we brought our pets to school in cages. We put them in hall. It was loud. There were lots of cats. They were brown, black, gray and ginger.
Next, we had the first parade at 10.30. All of the animals came but not the dogs because, if they went out, they would fight. The animals were loud.  There was a smart possum. It was climbing in a black cage. He was in a black bin. The bin was black and the possum was black and fiery. It made little peeping sounds.
Finally, it was the dog parade. There were heaps of black labradors They were barking. They were tall. I liked Cleveland's trick, the fastest dog in the universe and the fastest man in the universe. It was when he and his dog ran around the field and I liked Jackson's trick. He made his dog dance. His dog was black. It barked quietly.
