Science Trip

Last week Friday we went on a trip to two places, but did three things. We went to Pt England Reserve and to the Glen Innes swimming pool. It was an exciting trip, although I did not participate due to me being sick. I did enjoy watching everyone else participating and communicating with each other. For our first session we did a survey on the sea shore. We found a lot of shells instead of interesting things, like tiny fishes or shrimps or even crabs. For our second session we did snorkelling and learnt new tricks. The class had fun participating and swimming with the instructor and their partners. For our third and last session we picked up rubbish. The purpose of this was to examine carefully on what people throw away here at Pt England Reserve and to help the environment. After that we walked back to our various destinations. I learnt that the basic rules of wearing snorkelling gear and I learnt and witnessed the amount of rubbish that can be found, but still can be a lot of rubbish. I can apply these skills into my daily life by helping the environment by picking up rubbish and teaching other people how to snorkel. I enjoyed the trip and hope to go again.
