Future Aspiration

We quickly got seated and everybody was silent. We started with a prayer and finished with Amen. Mr Burt start off with a Korero about future Aspiration , about what are we going to do in the future?and  whats our dreams!. So Andrew Patterson is here with some people who succeed.

Andrew Patterson  finished his korero and watched a short film about a year 9 in Manurewa collage. Ivana speaks and encourage's people to chase their dreams. He talked about how his school is doing good and his grades are getting higher because he has listened more. He never thought they he will be paid for speaking to people on stage.

There were three presenters Amelia , Anthony and Paula 

But one of my favorites was Paula. He talk to many year 7 &8 about future Aspiration and he told us a story about when he was in school. Back in school the pools will always be open on a very hot day.

He went swimming and he will always have races with his friends in the pool. They had to swim to the deep side and back to the shallow part. So they kicked off and they started splashing water and swimming fast as they can to win. As they got tired they started slowing down and Paula started walking in the water and won the race.

They picked him to be in the swimming team for there school and they went to the a pool near there school and got changed and ready it looked really fancy. There were different schools there and Paula was very sure that he's going to win because he had a special weapon.

He was all ready in his togs and waiting until the empire say's go" .He snapped the wood and they dived in. There were swimming as fast as they could back and back. As they got to the middle of the pool the swimmers started slowing down.

As they were slowing down he tried to walk but as he put both legs onto the ground he couldn't reach the bottom of the water and it was to deep and started drowning and lifeguards swam and carried him out. It was one of his embarrassing moments. And her friends were laughing at him.

As he was telling us the story he was doing funny actions to it. It was really cool listening to there stories about there future.

Rip current

In New Zealand we have the highest drowning rates so its important to keep safe in a Rip. If you are in a Rip the first thing is to don’t Panic. So never swim alone because if something dangerous happens and you also panic you can get dragged under that Rip.

Life guards put out the 2 flags for a reason so stay between the flags because its safe.If you are caught in the rip don’t panic because most people drown and even die from panicking in the rip its important to don’t panic.

Do you know how a rips for?

Rip is like a stream full of water that pushes water out and away from the shore. So if the rip pushes you away  and you're trying to get back to shore put your one hand up and wait for the lifeguards to come and get you. Rips are hard to get out of so you should know rules when you are in a rip.

How do you identify a rip?

When you are getting drifted away and you’re trying to swim back to shore thats when you know you’re in a rip.  When water are hitting the shore and on the same time water drifting away thats when you know its a rip. Rips are unsafe to be around so its important you swim near the shore and away from rips.

What to do when you are caught in a rip?

When you are caught in a rip don’t try to swim back just wait until someone grabs you. Don’t panic because you might drown and die from rips. If you are caught just wait until the waves finally stop and then you can swim back. 

If you go to a family picnic on the beach always swim when their adults close to you so they can pull you in. Its important that you swim where lots of people are. So you can tell your parents or someone who's taking you to the beach about whats a rip current.
