At the beach by Meleane


One lovely sunny day Ana, Annliz  Aldora and their  parents and I, were heading down to the beach. When we got there we had a nice shady spot and was just right for all of us.Then we all got changed and went swimming but Ana and Aldora parents was just going to stay.

“Oh no” screamed Aldora’s mum she had lost her wallet and all her money and credit cards will be gone. So we all tried to find it we checked everywhere but we just can’t find it. “ She must of left it at home” said Ana or you dropped it in the van.


It was time to pack up because it was about to rain but Aldora mum was still upset. As we were packing up the wallet was sticking out out of her hoodie. “Hahaha” cried out loud Annliz.

Hopping in the van heading back home talking about how fun it was. THAT WAS THE BEST DAY EVER I hope we could do that agin

Hilarious Running By Meleane

“Oh no this might be a difficult challenge”  I said to my friend Annliz  with an edgy voice. I wonder how it will feel if I was in paralympics but we were  about to find out.

“ Ok room fifteen please get your self a belt and tie it around your waist and put one arm inside” said Mr Marks. It felt like I had missing limbs and my arm had disappeared. As Mr Marks blew the whistle I sprinted as hard as I could towards end of the of the court as I got back it was so
hilarious!!

Wheel Chair Sprint by Charlee Webb


The Paralympic is for people who are blind, deaf or who have no legs or arms. A sport that people with no legs can do is a sport call Wheel Chair Sprint. That is when you are on the speacil kind of wheel chair which has one wheel in the frount and two wheels in the back so that it keeps you balance. You dont have any handels all you need to do is mostly use you arms and hands to control the wheels like your on an wheel chair.



Paralympics by Lee Andersen



In the Paralympics there is a 200 meters sprinting race but its not any normal run. They have curved metal blades as their legs because they have amputated legs. The reason why the blades were curved was so that they could run fast. At first they looked like they would fall over at the start the crowd was supporting their team. A man who was running funny got to first place he was running like a speedboat.

Five a Side Football by Hope Loia



Five a side Football is a game that people play which I haven’t played, but I know how to play. The players are blindfolded because some of them are are blind and it’s not fair for them if some could see. Then there is a ball that has a bell in it so people know where it is. It looks really tricky to me but they make it look easy. Some of the Football players have fast legs like the wind it goes like a zigzag to. The goalkeeper can see but the players can’t, they are visually impaired.

Paralympics by Anthony Doctor


After the olympics there is one more sporting event that is the paralympics which is like special olympics. There was a 200m sprint.There were people with one leg and the other leg was a blade and if you had no legs you would have two blades on both legs. Did you know that fake legs are made out of carbon fibre and hot rod’s are made out of carbon fibre too.There was one person that legs were amputated they were cut above the knee and he ran funny he started getting close then he was leading and he was like a steam train and he got a world record.
