On Tuesday the year 8's went sailing. I had never been sailing before and I was super nervous about trying it. We firstly took a bus to Lake Rua, then got taught the rules and how the day was going to work. Next we learnt to set up the boat and put all the pieces on properly, then we got to do the setting up. After the setting up we had morning tea, then a one-to-one system when there was one person and boat going out on the lake with a coach on a motorised boat. Once everyone had had one go it was lunch time and after that we had a one-to-five ratio on the water where there were five kids on the water with boats and one coach but they had all three coaches on the water and all of the boats on the water. Once we had finished sailing we packed up everything and had the choice to go for a swim. I chose to go swimming because it was so hot but the water was freezing! Overall the day was fun and exciting. Hopefully this inspires you guys to have a go at sailing.

Hi Caitlyn, good blog post.
ReplyDeleteI hated sailing so much but I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Next time you could put paragraphs for different ideas.
