Rocky Shore Story

Rocky Shore

"WOW” I said as a massive rock was lifted my eyes were glued to the gigantic crab. The crab was exploring all the rocks like Bear Grylls exploring a Rainforest on Man vs. Wild. The next mind-blowing creature that we discovered was an anemone which looked like an alien they were slimy and red my hand was getting close to touching it but I thought it might poison me so I just left the anemones alone.

As soon as my dad lifted a huge rock wrecked and I don’t mean like 1 little fart I mean like 100 hundred farts all in a tiny space and as soon as that happened the rock went straight back on.

The discoveries we made never stopped. There we these very little fish and when they swam boy did they go fast they were like little lightning bolts in water.

But the thing we saw the most was the cool calm Chitons their spines looked spiky and rough I didn’t touch those either. But after a while the Rocky Shore Exploration had to came to an end.

Today was the day of the Rippa Rugby tournament. We had just arrived at the fields we were playing on. About 10 minutes later it was time for our first game. We were playing Ashurst. The wistle blew and the game began. Then the game had finished the final score was 9-4 we had won
We had a 10 minute break before the next game Mr McCallum said that we were going to smash the next team that we were playing. But when we got to the field we were playing on the other teams bands were silk they were like my sisters swimming ribbions. Before we went on mr McCallum had told us that we needed to rip hard at the tags so thats what we did. At one point of the game this ran straight at me so I grabbed her tags but when I did this I knocked her over but that didn't matter cause I ripped her tags off. We won that game as well but I cant remeber the score. After that game Mr McCallum said that next team we were coming up agaisnt was going to be the hardest we had played yet. The team was Winchester Mr McCallum was right the were quite good especially this one girl who was really fast she was in my Rep touch team. They also had the silk tags but they were no match for our amazing talent but they did put up quite a nice match. Now it was the semis we were playing Parkland B. At the start of that match I was really nervous.
