Challenge - in the water!

Last weekend, I took on a new challenge and swam the 1km Akaroa Ocean Swim! It was a challenge for me because I'd never done an ocean swim before and it was a long way - about 40laps of the Southbridge Pool!



Afterwards I felt proud that I completed the challenge and so did my three friends who did it also. We all did it faster or slower than each other but we were happy to complete the challenge most of all! Anna's mum Karen also competed and did very well.

Three days later, Room 3 took on their own swimming challenge: The Middle/Senior School Swimming Sports at Southbridge Pool. This was the first time for everyone in Room 3 and I was very proud of how everyone rose to the challenge!!


Alex, Ben, Anna and Sonya did very well in their competitive races and the rest of room 3 enjoyed the experience!

Leave a comment and tell me what you liked about swimming sports? What challenge did you overcome?
