Senior Swimming Sports

                  Senior Swimming Sports


On Friday I was quietly waiting patiently for my name to be called. Finally my name was called and I was so nervous. As I walk slowly to line up my legs turn into wobbly jelly. My tummy felt like one thousand butterflies were roaming around inside it. Finally my group was numbered off.


Suddenly Mrs N nosily blows the whistle. We step onto the edge of the sparkly pool.
"On your marks get set" BANG! Quickly my legs spring into action as I drive into the pool. The glistening water glides as I freestyle to the end.


Bang! my soggy hand hits the wall like thunder. Lisa gives me a bright blue block. I pop it on the desk. "Second" I whisper quietly to myself. I feel proud.

About Me

Hi my name Dean. Today I'll be telling you a little bit about myself.  I am 9 years old, I was born on the 21st of September 2006 at Waikato Hospital. I live with my Mum, Dad and sister in Pirongia village which is by Pirongia mountain in the Waikato.

I love playing rugby, touch rugby, swimming and running. My other interests are playing on my PS Vita, LEGO, and going in the bush. I love my army toys and watching army stuff on TV. One of my interests is watching movies. My favourite movies are Lord of the Rings, The Avengers, and the Hobbit.

I've had four dogs in my life time, but two of them are now dead. The two dogs that I have now are, Tess, a three year old Blue Healer and  Rusty, a 3 month old Red Healer.

I am in year five at Pirongia School. I am in room 10 and my teacher is Mrs Hobbs.
