Chess tournament

Last week we did a chess tournament, we play 7 games each. When the guy put up the draws everyone went crazy because they wanted to see who they were facing.  When I went to where we play I was so nervous, after five minutes I check mated the girl I was facing. After my game me and hunter played a game where you have a horse and pawns are on the rest of the squares. The horses can only move in a L shape.

 On my first try I had twelve pawns left, then Hunter went and got I think he got eighteen left , then I had another turn, but this time I was determined to win and if I did I would get a badge. After I played I was so angry because I had 7 left.

I won my next game, well I was waiting I tried to guess how much horses were in a really big horse, I guessed 123 because it was so heavy. I won the game because I checkmated her with my horse so I got a badge. By the end I got in the top team and won 5 out of 7 games. 

The End  

GET SET GO!!!!!!

At 10:30 room 2/3 hopped in the bus to go to enterprise pool it took about 15 minutes to get there. On the way I sat with Hunter I was on the window side.Nervousness got in my body as we hop out of the bus at enterprise pool. As we walked into the pool we had to get into our togs in the changing room. I didn't bring board shorts because last year I brang board shorts and they were falling down so I brang speedos. As we sat down on the big seats. we put our bags on this ledge. First up was the year 4 girls doing one length free style then year 4 boys doing one length freeStyle.

Then it was finally year 5 girls then was koka ngaire called out our names I faced Jaxon,Noa,Abbay and Neko. Yesterday on the people who I faced it was Cory and Rori but they must of changed who I was faced. I am so happy that they changed it because they are the the fastest. My heart pound as I dived of the box we had to do 2 lengths I swam my hardest. Then tumble turning at the end I was coming first.
