My time at Eastern Beach By Creedence

On Monday 27 February 2012 the whole of Panmure Bridge School went to Eastern Beach. We had to wait for the bus. We were mad but when the bus arrived everyone was happy! It was cool!

When we were on the bus it was a bit noisy but who cares? When we got out of the bus Miss Paton did the roll to check if everyone was here. After that Mr Johnston called the juniors to get the life jackets and they did that. After them it was room 8’s turn to swim . They had to use the life jackets too. When they were finished Mr Johnston told room 7 to get the life jackets. Then it was room 5’s turn to get the life jackets. When I put a life jacket on it was cold. When l went into the water we were floating. When we got out of the water l was still cold. l was was glad to get out of the water! It was lunch time and l had some chips and a bottle of water. After lunch l played cricket with Oh S’mar then it was time to go back to school it was home time.
