Book Competition

10 – 12 years What I wish for Christmas

Christmas is a great season to give gifts and receive ones. My dream is to get a pair of roller skates. They must be pink in colour and decorated with pictures of butterÁies. There should be four wheels on each boot, Àxed in a single line along the sole. It’s also called inline roller skates.

I will have great fun learning to roller skate. It will take some time and effort to skate gracefully. I will practice my new skill at the Diyatha Uyana park since there is a smooth road specially designed for cycling and roller skating.

I will wear elbow and knee guards along with a helmet to protect myself from injuries when falling.

Nowadays roller skating is becoming more popular in the world. There are different types of world class competitions in roller skating such as artistic, speed skating and even roller hockey.

I wish that one day competitors from Sri Lanka will participate and win medals in these events.
