The Cross Country


Last Thursday afternoon the whole school did Cross Country. When our class got to the front field, classes were already sitting on the tarpaulins.

First year six girls did their run. After the year six girls and boys had finished the year five children did their run. After that the rest of the children went in order like the years six and five did.

When it was time for the year three girls to do their run, I had a little bit of butterflies in my tummy. When the year three girls had finished, I was sad because I really wanted to get in the top ten.

When all the year groups had finished everyone had a break. Then it was time for the open race. Lots of kids participated in the open race. When the open race started everyone cheered and cheered because everybody wanted the person who they were cheering for to win the race. When it was nearly the end of the race I came second to last.

I’m glad cross country finished early.
