Today for blogging we had to upload what we did yesterday. Yesterday we went on a trip to learn snorkelling. We went to Te Punawai-ora pools to learn snorkelling. Next week on Tuesday we are going to the real ocean to practice snorkelling there. At Te Punawai-ora pool we put on wet suits, flippers and mask. We had to get in buddies. We all had to sit at the end of the pool with our buddies and put our mask and flippers on. We all got a board then we all got in. We first tested our mask to make sure no water comes in and then, one by one, each person with their buddy got called up with their board and had to hold on the end of the board and swam around the pool with our heads under the water. We went twice around the whole pool. Then we also had to swim under a hoop and after that you and your buddy had to swim to the other side of the pool and then we had to get out and get changed again. Here is a photo of...
I learned that wet suits are actually really tricky to put on and take off,.
I also really enjoyed going through the hoop because I like going through things and also going under water.
My goal is to not be afraid to go to the deep side because I am not that confident swimming in deep water.
Have you ever been snorkelling or been to Te Punawai-ora pools before?
Kia Ora Natasha,
ReplyDeleteyou created a great blog post. I like that you have included everything you did but also used good punctuation and descriptive words. Next time you could write where exactly you are going snorkelling. You also had a nice clear picture and a good reflection. I haven't been to the Te Punawai-ora pools before but I have been snorkelling.
Hi Peyton and thank you for taking your time to write a comment on my blog. What place did you go snorkelling? Bye
