Athletics, High-jump

Tension was in the air  as the last, and hardest sport neared.  We had just finished 100m sprints and were making our way over to High-jump.  I watched as the last of the year 5 boys made their way over the bar, which was around the height of 1.8m.  Arthur made it over smoothly, though the next made their way into the bar, knocking it down.  

Matua Nick explained the rules, which was mostly about cones, and then started the rights, my sides line.  I Watched as people got over, and as people knocked it down.  sooner than I thought, it was Alivia's turn to jump, she ran, she sprant, she... knocked down the bar. Then it was my turn, I jogged, it turned into a run, then a light sprint.  My right leg flew up, and I suddenly felt confident.  I made my way smoothly over the top of the bar and landed perfectly on the big, fat, blue mat.  I ran back, exited.  Than one after one all the other girls failed, except for Charlotte M, my rival. 

Charlotte was on her orange cone, with 2 more lives, while I was on my green, full with 3 lives, like at the beginning.  the bar went from 1.5m to 1.10m.  I ran, I sprinted, I skimmed the bar.  It wobbled violently, as I watched, my nerves on end.  It didn't fall off!!  I ran back to the green cone.  None of my lives had left me.  Charlotte ran, and... knocked the bar.  She was on the cone with holes in it now. she took her jump she made it over!  It was end on end now, 1 life V.S. 3.  

The bar was moved up to 1.15m.  I ran, I sprinted... I once again skimmed the bar.  It wobbled.  I hoped with my whole heart it wouldn't fall off, my life depended on it.   It stayed standing!  Now Charlotte ran, she... knocked the bar.  that was it.  Matua Nick told me and Charlotte to sit next to Lola And Alivia.  We watched as the boys all fell down rankings until the winner was unveiled.  Matua Nick then announced the placings!  " For Year 6 girls, First, Charlotte A,..."  
My heart leapt, I had won!!  All the rest was drowned out by the cheering that was coming from within my body.

My-last term-Quickwrite

 All I can say is, Hope you enjoy!

I pulled myself up as the Rottweiler ran at me.  It had definitely inherited the ferocious part of his blood.  I watched as he charged at me, still only 10cm of the ground when Mia hauled me up.  The stump of the old tree branch next to the new tree branches always made me wonder why it got cut down.  I looked at the dog, that had just given a huge lunge at me. It then hit me, the tree had been attacked by a rottweiler! (It was obviously wrong, I'm very stupid.),I decided to climb higher, by the looks of it, the dog was going to get to where I was.  I grabbed onto a branch and placed my feet firmly on the branch just below.  I pulled myself to my full height and did the same to the branch my hands had been on a moment before.  when I got on it I realized it was exceptionally weak.  

The dog jumped into the tree, and I began to panic.  The dog saw me as Mia ushered for me to get higher. I struggled, as I'm very bad at things when I'm under pressure, even worse than normal. I was panicking more than I usually would cause a rottweiler had recently murdered an innocent lady.  The dog clawed at the branch I was on. What if it murdered me to?  Was repeating in my head.   I tried, but couldn't think of anything else.  "Lulu!" screamed mia in warning and panic.  the dog clawed my branch again and it snapped."AAGH!", I screamed as I fell, A look of horror stitched onto my face.  "LULU!" screamed Mia.                                         I still fell.  The dog launched out of the tree at me.  I screamed, again, In my head it was slow motion, repeating over and over until, Thud.  I hit the ground with a mighty thud.  The Rottweiler landed on me, and it was all over.Of course I'm still alive, that was just all I could remember.

Did you enjoy? Hope so, and Thank you for reading. Bye!                                                                               P.s. That didn't really happen, though some facts are real, and I have been chased by a Pitbull!
