My Eastern beach


Eastern Beach  

****

Swish  slop plop clap splash, children hopping and jumping in the cold icy water.  Last week on Monday it was a beautiful day. Panmure Bridge  School went on a picnic to Eastern Beach.  Everyone was so excited to hop on the buses and go out for the day.  

When we arrived, the beach was shining with sparkly  water.  We saw the kayaks and some of the teachers already at the beach.  It was really fun for me at the beach because I took pictures of children swimming, and the year 7s and 8 doing kayaking.

The best part of the kayaking was when I heard Ms Kirkpatrick telling one boy and girl from each group to stand and walk across the kayaks slowly, it looked scary. After taking pictures of our class and room 9. I went for a quick break, crunching away as I was eating my yummy sandwich and shapes.

As time was going by fast I went on the beach with one of the students from room 9 to play kicks. After playing kicks, I took photos of some people in room 9, splash I heard people  falling off their kayaks. Everyone started to pack up and pick up rubbish. It seemed that the whole school enjoyed their time at the beach and I did too even though I didn't get to swim.  We all lined up to get ready to hop back on the buses to go back to school. I really enjoyed our trip and hoping that we get to go on another fun trip. WOW!
