My try kids Writing By Kapri



On Friday March 30th the school did try kids except me.  On Friday I didn't do try kids because on Thursday 29th of March I fell off the rings at the playground.  But I did do it on wednesday and thursday but not on friday.

But I watched our school do the try kids.  The people that organized it there name was: Mark, brian and brett. they had to do the slip and slide four times, ride the bike around two times and run around two times.  First they had to put on their helmets to make sure there straps to make sure they wouldn't of fell off their bike but first they had to chose their bike.  then they had to do the slip and slide.

The people put soap and dishwashing liquid on it.  When they were finished they were really slippery they had heaps of soap  on them.  Then they had to ride their bikes that they chose then they had to around the outside of the flags.  then you had to ride in between the white flags then you have to hop off your bike the park it up where you found it.

Then they had to run around the cones two times.  out of the boys patrick came first and out of the girls leenas came first.  when they were finished the race they got a eazypeazy drink but Yvette got me a eazypeazy drink.  The drinks were nice they taste like orange and honey.  I didn't have a great time doing it because but I had a great time watching it I hope they can come back and do it again it was fun but this time I won't break my arm so I can do the try kids and I really really hope that they come back.
