Going To The Pools

It was a bright sunny day after school, With lots of chattering from kids. Some kids talked about going to GI pools today., (22.02.17). I was thinking, “Should I go too?”, and then my brother came up to me and said “Do you want to go to the pools today”. I was waiting for my answer to pop into my mind. “YES!!!”. I was filled with a lot of excitement. “Yeah let's get our togs and get out of here”. We quickly got our togs and ran to the pools.

When we arrived one of my friend was waiting for me there. We met up and went inside. I ran to the toilet, took off my clothes changing into my togs and jumped into the pools. It's was very cold. My teeth was clattering, my body was freezing and… I was hungry. We had a good swim with my friend, but it was time for me and my brothers to go back home.

My brothers and I had a very good time!!!Image result for glen innes pool
