X country

Despite the weather our cross country still carried on. We eagerly were waiting for our year level to be called. It was finally my turn. I nervous, could I run down that slippery hill without falling over? I thought to myself "here goes nothing."  Mrs Poulsen started the race, the clappers went off with a bang...

For more recounts of our cross country stay tuned. 

When  I ran around the corner and I felt nervous.When I passed Bastie  I thought  I was 9th place.At the end.  I almost  fell over running up the stairs.by Alex.

When  we   heard   the   clappers   I   ran  as  fast  as  I  could. I  was  the  first  year   2  boy  to  get   to   the front  But then I got the stitch and I had to walk.  I was feeling sore and disappointed that I wasn't in the lead, but I came 6th.  By Iroquois

 My  heart   was  beating   faster   and  faster  and   faster. I   thought   I  was   going  to  collapse 

because  I  was  tired.  but  i  didn't   I kept on   going  .   Then I  heard  my  brother   cheering.   I  went faster and faster till I crossed the finish line.  By Isabel

I was feeling my body might explode and I had a rely rely bad stitch.  I was excited because I came 5th. I did not want to come last so I ran as fast as I could. BY MARSHALL BELL

On Monday the 13/5/13 the school did the cross country. We did the cross country in Preston Downs. It was a cold day. There was some mud on the track. My shoes were soaking at the end of the race. Alice came first and I came second and Lissy came third. Only first, second, third, forth and fifth got their number on their hand.  My feet were going really fast. At the finish we had to run up the stairs. I felt like my heart was about to explode out of my chest.
