Climbing Wall Recounts

Conquering the Wall

By Frankie

When I was in the open field I was excited and nervous at the same time about the climbing wall. When I  got closer it was even BIGGER. When I got their I said to myself I need to GO TOILET. When it was my turn,  I said to myself again, “I DID NOT EXPECT THIS!!!!!”. My heart was pounding like a plane was going to crash on top of me

When I started to climb I could hear my  Dad shouting,  “You can do it!” When I started climbing my hands were so tired. My team wasn’t  pulling the  belay thats why I was struggling. I had stop for a little bit to have a rest. There was this rock I was stuck on, it was so hard but I gave it a go so I told Akeli and the others to “PULL” then I went faster.  I said to myself, “THIS IS WORST THAN RUNNING.” The others were cheering for me so I pushed myself up. I was almost to the top, 4 more rocks till the top, my legs were starting to get numb. Finally I made it to the the top I was happy that I made it to the top!

Climbing the Wall of Terror

By Redha

As I approached the climbing wall, the tall, massive monster! My heart started pounding! I was nervous! What might happen to me? I had no idea but I said to myself: "I CAN DO IT!" I knew I wanted to be last, To see how other people climbed the monster! As the instructor approached us he said,

"That wall is too big, It's too scary! Be aware!" He put the harness around us and told us the safety rules.

I was still scared, horrified and nervous, "will I ever make it!?" I said to myself.  My friends told me:

"Be brave Redha!"

Luckily I was last so I can see how other people climbed the GIANT! The belay team pulled and pulled on the rope, I felt like my muscles were ripping! Pulling and pulling until it came to an end! Thent it was my turn to climb the MONSTER! I was nervous! I only managed to climb 3 rocks!

But I did try my best to climb the HUMUNGOUS, MASSIVE MONSTER! But it was so hard because it was the hardest rock climbing row to climb on! I had to give up! :(

It was actually my first time climbing a climbing wall, And I (maybe,) shall never go rock climbing AGAIN!

When I go rock climbing it gives me a fright because the wall was massive!

I did enjoy giving rock climbing a try, But I should say: The Water slide is better!

THE MONSTER CLIMBING WALL

As I watched my friends climb the wall my heart started pounding furiously  knowing that I was next. Ace's arm's were tired and Hamish's arms were still trying but slowly giving out. When it came to me I looked up and the only thing that I saw was a monster climbing wall that was taller than a house I felt I wanted to conquer this wall like everyone else.

It came to my turn and I was NERVE WRECKED my friends conquered it & I wanted to become like them so badly !!!. I started climbing foot by foot, hand by hand it was getting harder by the second & my muscles were shaking. so  I couldn’t lift an arm or leg, I knew it would come down to this.

When I heard everyone shouting me to go farther I went a little more but that was it! My arms & legs gave out, I was losing my grip. The only thing that was going through my mind was that this was actually fun because I love a good challenge.  Thats when I realized that it’s was why they called it the monster climbing wall.

I told them I was tired & if they could let me down so my muscles could rest. I didn’t make it to the top but I gave it my all. I started watching others as I walked to the belay team and started pulling the rope so that Reuben didn’t fall when his arms or legs gave out.
