Emily surfing!

Last week Rimu class ( Year 7 & 8 ) went surfing at sumner beach. It was really fun, I've always wanted to learn how to surf. I'm not the best at surfing but next year I'm thinking about taking part in a surfing club. Because surfing is so much fun! Back to the topic, we went surfing for a first WPCA ( William Pike Challenge Award ) and I'm hoping to do more WPCA! Here is a poem that I wrote about surfing and under that is a video of me surfing. I was suppose to stand up but... I end up in this really awkward position. :)



    Surfing Poem


I can hear waves crashing into the rocks when I climbed up the big rock cave.
I can hear people yelling “I did it, I did it” when I’m surfing.


I can touch the water dripping from the board when I’m dragging my board on the wet sand.
I can touch the sand sticking all over my wet suit.


I can see people walking their dogs when I’m surfing on the waves.
I can see a big spider climbing up as we did on the rock cave.


I can taste salt all over my mouth which taste like french fries but ten time more stronger.
I can taste salt in my pasta salad at lunch time.


I can smell the fishes in the water from miles away.
I can smell salty air just casually wandering around.

  2. Wow Emily you look like a natural surfer. Well you will look like a natural surfer with more practise. The wonderful thing about surfing is that it is great fun even when you fall off. You must have a very strong sense of smell to be able to smell the fish in the ocean. I think it is great that you are considering joining a surfing club. Will you do any more research about surfing before you decide? I look forward to your next blog post.
