surf life saving ed at Mirangi bay

On a cloudy Friday morning the year 7's of point England school were excited as they were looking forward to a fun packed day we were off to Mirangi bay for surf lessons to stay safe in the surf.

Finally we arrived after a half n hour or so we finally got to strecth i raced to the front 'Everyone sit down' says Mrs Nua then Rosie one of the guards came over and we took our bags up into the surf club. it was a beautiful sight of Rangitoto but the waves were small not big like Piha.

The first thing we did was the rules of the sun and other activity's but the best was playing on the boggy boards on the waves the parents made a perimeter around us first the boys had the boggy boards first.
