On your marks, get set, go! Off we ran. Out into the paddock. I heard Lachie saying, “Go Charlie.” I saw Mum and Dad cheering. I felt good after the run. Mum got me two ice blocks. I came 1st place, my friends Frank and Sam came after me. I felt good about going in to the top 10. I was coming 5th or 4th but when we were coming out of the paddock I got in front of Sam and Paul. I heard my name on the speaker. I was proud of myself, this is the third time I’ve won. I wonder if I will win next year!

Ready, steady, Bang! Off I ran. Vili and I fell over when we were at the first corner but I got up again. I went through the hedge and I ran past Mum. She was a marshal and I ran around the paddocks. I wasn’t in the top ten but I didn’t care because it was about taking part. When I finished the race Sarah and I got an ice-block.

I started eating my lunch, OLS and MPS started walking in. I walked over to the warm up area feeling nervous. I saw my friends warming up. I lined up to start. Bang! Mr B clapped the pieces of wood and off I ran. Through the hedge, I jumped over the hay bales and I ran past marshals. I ran over the finish line exhausted. I walked over to get an ice block and a sausage, they were scrumptious. I was pleased I finished in the top ten. I was proud.

I felt nervous when I went to the warm up because it was nearly my race. Bang! Mr B banged the sticks together and off we went. I was zooming off into the paddock. I heard lots of people cheering on the racers. I saw lots of people puffing after the race. I tasted the yummy ice block and sausage I had after my race, yum. After I had my ice block and sausage all the races had finished, Mum and I went home. When I got home I was very pleased that I got in the top 10. At teatime I told Dad all about cross country.
Cartia Ludemann
I felt nervous going to cross country. I heard the blocks bang! I saw cow poo when we went through the paddock. I also saw lots of children puffing. I smelt the disgusting cow poo. I tasted my delightful sausage, it was so delightful. I liked it so much that I got three sausages. They were tasty. They were the best sausages I ever had on earth.

Ready, set, go! Mr B clapped the blocks, away we ran. We ran, we ran and we ran. I saw the rugby post and I ran past. I heard lots of my friends cheering for me. Then I ran into the paddock. Splat! I ran into cow poo, then I ran past the water trough. Then we ran over a bale and then we went around the other way.
