My swimming explanation.

On week seven team 4 started going swimming down at GI aquatic centre. We got put into teams 1,2,and 3. One of the groups have a instructor called laura.  Unlike the other hobbies that just have one stroke, swimming has four strokes. They are crawl stroke, chest stroke, back crawl stroke, and butterfly stroke. In addition, they make me not feel bored when I do this sport activity. So, swimming is the right hobby for me. Because, I like useful sport. From swimming, I can get very active, that’s good for my health. Beside that, I can learn about swimming strokes that makes me swim well. And, I can swim safely with the right swimming equipment. We go to a session at the GI pools I was so excited that we were going when that special day came we went at 2 o'clock to the GI pools. We have instructors to help us to swim. Every Friday we go to Tamaki college after swimming for sports. I enjoy going there because it is really fun.
