Our Trip to Eastern Beach

Trip to Eastern Beach Last Monday the whole school went on a trip to Eastern Beach. We got on the back of the beast and raced down to the beach. Once we got to there we all walked over to the reserve where Mr. Johnston was standing, and we sat down. He told us our rules for being at the beach.

On land Mrs. Anderson was on ‘grass time’ for the whole day. She watched over everyone while Ms. Kirkpatrick was teaching us kayaking skills. Everyone was ecstatic.

After she had talked to us about kayaking we all got in a kayak and blitzed off towards the pink bottle that was floating. It was scary for me because I nearly fell out countless times. Once we all got to the bottle we all got close together, holding the kayaks next to us, while they were doing the same. Ms. Kirkpatrick asked Leila and Isaac to stand up and walk across the kayaks.
