Tyler's Eastern Beach story

MY TIME AT EASTERN BEACH STORY

Yahoo! we are going to Eastern Beach today. I was so angry when the bus was late. It came about 10 to 20 minutes late. I was so angry when the bus was late. When we went to Eastern Beach we had morning tea. Then we went to play volley ball with Kifi, Mosese, Molia and I. Then we went into the water. We had to do the life jacket activity. We had to touch the kayak. We had to float on our back and on our stomach the water was so cold. Then we got to have free time. After we we had lunch I had a sandwich, it was nice. I hope we go to Eastern Beach next year.

My Athletics day by Tyler

On November 18th we had Athletics day. It was the best day in my life. but not better then church. I was the first one to get out on high jump. Then we went to Jump Jam. We had 30 minutes on each event. Then we went to discus I didn’t come first in discus but then we went to 100 meter sprints. I came last in the 100 meter sprints, but I came first in throws. I was lucky I came first in throws. Then we had 400 meter sprints but I came 6th to last. I had the most best time. I wish I can do it again.
