You went where?

 In the holidays, I went to Nelson for an athletics tournament. At school, I had to make a piece of writing about it. The first paragraph described the place, the second when it is sunny and the third when it's rainy.

You went where?

Saxton Park Athletics field

The Saxton park athletics field is a massive athletics oval. It has a 400 meter track, a long jump pit and many other things for athletics. The Colgate Games athletics tournament is happening. Children of many ages are rushing out of the tents and participating in events. There are people with face paint on, doing activities and running around with drinks and snacks in their hands.

In the hot sun, there are people everywhere. Everyone buys cold drinks to keep cool. When they are waiting for their events, they sit in the shade, lathering on sunscreen. Even sunscreen can’t protect us from a tan.
Everyone is almost wasting their water, pouring it on their head and gulping it down. The sun beats down on our skin, making it hard to do any events because it is so hot. The sky is cloudless, so the sun never disappears, heating up the track and us.

When the sky is grey and it’s raining, most of the competitors and parents stay in their tents. There are less people out getting food, and when they do, it is for something warm.
The rain starts with a light drizzle, and when it comes for the grade 11 girls 400 metre races, the rain buckets down on everyone. The rain leaves us drenched, cold, and shivering. When we run, it is very hard to see because the rain splashes in our face.
