Goals

Last term my goals were................

• By the end of term 3 I would like to be working on stage seven and scoring at least 65%.
• I would love to get my first star the end of the year.

So far I haven't achieved either of these but I got 48 % for my test last term and I have earned a few gold points for my sporting gold.

I am going to achieve these by doing as many sports as possible and work in the maths areas i am not very confident.

Waves

This was it. I saw it. This was just right. The wave I had been looking for. I hopped on my boogie board and started paddling and then it happened I started to move with the flow of the wave. I saw Alison glare at me a pang of guilt rose in my chest, I wasn’t supposed to be out this deep. This was awesome! Then they came crashing down on me.

I was dragged under, and gulping in heaps of water; the water was salty. The sea was pummeling me like a stone. I started to somersault. By this point I had swallowed so much water, I was crying (though it didn’t make any because I was under water).

 Finally I emerged. I ran back to the shore and found her. she glared at me; ‘You weren’t supposed to go out that deep.’

‘Sorry’ I said.

We walked back to the batch. I had a nice warm shower. Thinking back on that day i’m thankful that I knew how to swim.

The Blacksmith

The blacksmith, in that mask of cold hard metal, brings the hammer down again and again. Clang, clang! This man comes from a great line of blacksmiths, best in the land some people would say.

Ulrick, the blacksmith, suited his job. He is strong and has big hands. One day a soothsayer came to the village……..
