Olympic Adventure

Olympic Adventure

The children were doing a project on the Olympic Games. "Tomorrow we will go to the museum and next week it's sports day," said Mrs May.

“Everyone can enter a race on sports day,” said Mrs May. "I think the girls should have a sewing race!" laughed one of the boys. After school Anneena and Wilma went to play with Biff. Anneena was cross. “Some boys are so silly,” she said. The magic key began to glow.

The magic took the girls back in time, to a village in Greece. A boy was calling to the villagers. “Follow me to the games,” he said. “Can we go too?” asked Biff. “Anyone can come!” said the boy. “As long as they are male.”

The men and the boys from the village went to the games. "It's not fair!” said Anneena. “Let's follow them,” said Biff. Outside the games, there were lots of guards. They only let men and boys in to the games. "We'll never get in,” said Biff.

“I wish we could see!” said Wilma. Anneena had an idea. “Let's climb a tree,” she said. The girls climbed an olive tree. They could see the games. They watched a race. Lots of men ran with shields.
