BEACH DAY
Wow! What an
awesome day we had at Westshore Beach on Thursday 18th February. We learnt
so many interesting rules to follow to keep ourselves safe during the
summer months. We learnt all about surf lifesaving, IRB’s, rips and
rescue tubes and had a chance to dive into the warm sea water later on
in the afternoon! SPLASH!!!!! The boogie boarding began and everyone
participated amazingly well! We hope we can go back to the beach again!
We learnt to …
SLIP! SLOP! SLAP! and WRAP to keep ourselves protected from the violent
sun. Ask your parents what they think these 4 verbs stand for…
We
also learnt to…
ü Always swim
between the flags.
ü Stay with an
adult when you are swimming.
ü Never swim
alone
ü Know your
limits (Can you really swim that well in the deep, strong surf?)
ü If in doubt,
stay out!
ü Always
listen to the lifeguards
Who are we rescuing in the photo below?
I wonder if it is going to be cold???
