THAT WAS SUMMER - SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY
That was summer.
Remember surfing, crashing waves, water spraying.
Remember the hammock, sleeping outside, stars glowing, mosquitoes biting and singing.
That was summer.
Remember swimming, splashing dives, stretching lengths.
Remember reading,listening to Mum at the beach, calm and relaxed.
Remember Christmas, excitedly opening presents, eating delicious food.
Remember barbecues, sizzling sausages , friends and laughter.
That was summer.

Thursday 14th Jan Sea biscuit
Morning, I got up and made myself breakfast which was French toast and peaches- delicious. After that, I put on my wetsuit, brushed my teeth, got a towel, and put on sunscreen. Me and Alec were so excited to go on our neighbour's biscuit.
We drove down to Taipa estuary and launched the boat. Oscar navigated the boat and when we went past Taipa bridge, Alec and I went on the biscuit. When I lay on the biscuit, my feet were in the water and it felt like needles were pricking into me. Oscar went very fast and did lots of turns which was very fun. At 10:30 am Oscar started driving back to the Taipa boat ramp. I really enjoyed today.
MY SUMMER FUN COLLAGE - SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY
