When I got to school around 8:40 am I noticed some kids didn't wear mufti they wore there uniform but some still came.Then the bell we were waiting the we lefted to the beach in the vans.When we got there we met the life guards they had a introduction about them about the beach and what then we learnt CPR Facts:you have to do 30 compression on the chest two breathes on the mouth.

Then we did a beach clean up to see who can pick up the most trash on the beach.Then we did some Challenges like chubby bunny and the weetbix challenge.Then we had some morning tea.Then soon after we got to have a swimming soon after and the waves we HUGE.We even got to pick any board  we any board we wanted I picked the lay on one,I would say that it was fun.
