Holy Week

Palm Sunday was  Sunday. That was when Jesus rode on a donkey into Jerusalem. The people  in Jerusalem laid their cloaks on the ground and waved palms at Jesus like Jesus was a king.
On Holy Thursday night, Jesus had his last supper. At the last supper, Jesus broke the bread and said, "Take this all of you and eat it. He shared the wine. he went to a different place in the room and washed their feet. One of the disciples left the table. His name was Judas.
On Good Friday, Jesus got put on a cross and he was crucified.
Jesus wasn't dead for long and on Easter Sunday, he rose from the dead. We call it Easter Sunday because we celebrate new life with Easter eggs.

Swimming Sports

Yesterday, my school went to Ngaruawahia pools to do swimming sports.

After lunch, the relays were on. I was in the Flying Squadron. The Flying Squadron was a house relay and the little kids had to run across the pool. Izabal ran to Logan then Logan ran back to Lakin then she did freestyle to me. I put my goggles on and looked at the pool. I put my hand behind me THEN my hand got tagged and I dived into ice coldness. It was cold but it was nice because I was hot. I came up then I started doing freestyle. I was putting hand after hand and breathing on every second, then I heard Go!!Go!!Go. I went faster then I put my hand up. I tagged Nathanael then he dived in.
