Welcome to this Room 11 blog. Our learning philosophy is to LEARN, CREATE an artifact that shows our learning, and then SHARE it in creative ways, including posting it here on this blog.The purpose of this blog is for students to become accustomed to sharing their learning, recieving feedback, and preparing them for having their very own blog.While students will make every effort to have work corrected and error free it is in fact authentic student work, showing where students are at, and so there are likely to be some mistakes. The aim is to note progress and improvement, and we expect to see this over time.

Beach Education
On the 20th of November room 6 and room 19 went to the paekakariki surf club to learn about beach education. We left at 9am and we traveled there by bus. when we got there the life guards took us into the life guard shelter thats were we put all our bags. Then they took us into the room and they introduced themselves to us. Then we got into our to classrooms one class went to take a tour of the place and the other classroom looked at  the first aid kit. We went to tour the place we looked at all the boats to use incase somebody was in trouble. I was really cool. Then we swapped over. We sat down to look at the first aid kit. We saw the vomit back it was disgusting and the thing to help you breath. After we had morning tea.

After we had morning tea we did relays. A group of children had to go with each parent i went with kenzas mum and some other people. we did relays so another group had to join up with another group. The first one we had to do is just run. then we had to run with a rescue tube then two people had go on the rescue tube. Then one person had a rescue tube and and had to wear flippers they were so small and so uncomfortable but we got threw it in the end. After we did watch a video about beach education and be safe in the water they taught these five  rules but i can't remember them but it was a cool video to watch. After we watched the video we had lunch where  we had all our bags in.
After we had lunch we had to go change to get ready to go in the water. We all went down to change and came back  outside to see what our next instruction was. All the boys had to go with the boy lifeguard and all the girls had to go with the girl lifeguard. We did some running and the boys did some running. We practised some dolphin diving so then we could do it in the water. There was a big circle of parents so we had to stay inside that circle. It was fun we went after the boys.

We were all finished in the water. We had to go change back in the changing rooms. Then come out again. We went threw the rules again while we were waiting for the bus to arrive.The bus came and then we came back to school.
