Swimming sports



Mr Mossop Called up the year 8 boys. I was excited to be doing the doggy paddle. When we got to the marshalling area I got in lane 2 with. Tyler Mr Mossop said, “Take your marks!” and then I lost my balance and fell in. Everyone else got a good dive in and I did a big belly flop. It didn't hurt that much because I was wearing a top.





After that me and Tyler were coming last and I kept laughing and choking on the water. By the time we were three quarters of the length I was coming second to last and then I got passed again. At the end I came last.

Last Day Of Art

Today at art we finished our Print. I first of all had to carve the rest of the sky and ocean. Then I rolled my black on and rolled it on to each of the my prints. Once I finished We had to make a print on a white piece of paper with black ink or black paper with white ink. We still had to use the same wood cut but we could what we wanted with it. I used a black and white piece of paper. I glued the black piece of paper then I used the black ink and printed it on to the white paper. and then I ran out of time so I through it away.
