After lunch, we had the Flying Squadron relay. Mr Emms put us in our places and told us what to do. When I was waiting for Quinn to tag my hand, I had to wait a while and, when she did, I jumped in and started to swim. The water felt like silk. People were cheering me on and saying, “Go faster,” so I kicked my legs as fast as I could, then when I came to the end, I tagged Serenity’s hand then she started zooming through the water. After the relays, was the adult race. When the whistle blew, Mrs Death dived in and started to swim like a bullet. When she got to the end, she tagged Scot’s hand. He zoomed through the water to the other side to tap Rory’s mum’s hand then she swam to tap Mr Brown. He swam to tap Morgan then he swam like a rocket to tap Guy. He dived in and splashed Regan and me.
Well done, Emily. You have helped me to see what it was like when you wrote - swam like a bullet, swam like a rocket, and - the water was like silk.
