YMCA Lagoon | Swimming

Today we went to the YMCA lagoon with room 5. We learnt that you should never approach the drowning person because they might be panicking and they can push you down. You should also lie down and throw them something to hold and then make sure the person is holding the item, then pull it towards yourself.

We then went to the deep end of the pool we had to practise floating and shouting "HELP". It was a bit to deep for me so I tried using the technique to try and float. I failed a few times but then kept on trying and eventually got the hang of it.

We had to get into partners. My partner was Te Raumati. Each group got a pool noodle to throw at their teammate. We did that a couple of times to get the hang of it. Our lesson then finished, and then we went to school.
