We arrived at Hornchurch Sports Centre. Altogether - including us - there were twelve schools competing. We were smartly dressed in our school tracksuits. If we wanted to win we would have to do our best. There were lots of events: relays, obstacle courses and field events.
Everyone if the crowd cheered for their athletes - we felt very well supported. As soon as the whistle went we shot off like cannon balls. After every race we were worn out. I imagine that it felt the same for us as the Olympic athletes who competed in London.
Once the events finished we were desperate to find out where we had come. It was time. We were nervous... very nervous! We stood up when they called our name; all the other schools clapped. We felt very proud for representing our school even if we did finish at the lower end of the table. It was a great afternoon of sport.
