Surfing trip

Last friday The year 5 and 6 went on a amazing surfing trip to the beach. First we sat down and the people esplanade how the surf board works the parts of the surf board, how to go on the surf board and how to stand up. We also learnt the types of the waves and how to know how big they are, We also learnt how to use the boogie board.

Then we got into lines of our home rooms and we got told if we were seals or dolphins and I was in seals, And that determined what we would be doing first. So then we got given wet suits to put on I got a nice blue one. Then my class went first to go out into the beach. The seals witch I was in went surfing fist and the dolphins went boogie boarding.

Before going out surfing the people went over how to stand up on the surf board and were to but your feet and other important things you need to know about surfing, Then we got to go out in the water and surf. When I went in the water and surfed I didn't really stand up because I hadn't done surfing before but after I got the hang of it and it was really fun!. The one thing that I struggled with about surfing is holding it, its really hard because it is so big! We got around bout half an hour to surf then we went back to the base then it was another classes turn whlie my class ate.

Then we went to the beach and did a sand castle competition witch was so fun Me and my friends made a light house with the sea and people swimming and a big boat. Then my class went back to the water and did the thing we didn't do so I did boogie boarding ,and since i had done it allot It was very fun and on the last wave I was all the way in sea then I went rite up to the stairs.
