SWIMMING

COMPETITION Yolana Renna | Year 7 Benue
Article by

n the 4th of March, I participated in the In-
ter-House Swimming Competition, and it was
O so cool! I will be honest, I was quite nervous
about participating because this is the first compe-
tition I have ever been chosen to do, but I stood tall
and put on a brave face.

When the day of the competition came I was dis-
tracted in class waiting for the competition to start
but when it did I started feeling extremely nervous,
but I was glad I had friends competing alongside
me. They helped me realise that this competition
wasn’t just about winning or losing, but that it was
about having fun and enjoying ourselves! And I did
have fun and enjoyed myself. Even though I came
second instead of first in my race, I still ended the

day with a smile on my face.

Overall, to me, the competition was a success. My
house came first, my friends and I had a great time
and I felt really good for supporting my house.

Even though I came

second instead of

first in my race, I still

ended the day with a

smile on my face.
