11.00am Bathurst Aquatic Centre for my weekly swimming lesson. I love the swimming pool! I learn freestyle kicks with hands straight on the kick board, rocket arms for swimming straight and bubble arm, bubble arm, breathe arm for my freestyle swimming. I am not a bad swimmer, just a little bit rusty. I love all the swimming I get to do after my lessons, that is the best part of the day for me.

1.00pm I walked to the Flagstaff next to the swimming pool - this is the place that Governor Macquarie put his flag when Bathurst was born. This place now has a new flag to celebrate Bathurst's 200th birthday. It's like your birthday, but it's for Bathurst. And I saw two birthday parties happening down at the river today - they looked so much fun that I wanted to go and join in.

Until next time
