Sand Boarding Fun

On Thursday 12th March rooms 7,8 and 9 went to Back beach to go sand boarding on the massive sand dunes. People were screaming their heads off! Even the parent helpers jumped on some boards. There were some epic fails from their  boards onto the sand. Some people even stood up on their boogie boards. Walking up the sand dunes wasn't very fun and lots of people were moaning. Lots of people looked a bit shocked when they came back up, but mostly the girls. All  the boys were loving it even when they got wiped out! I got a sand cake at the end of  my slides.

Everyone had about 5 turns with awesome sand boarding. Jurij and me got a face full of sand! Fenton was really good at standing on his one. At the start we had to walk down to see if there was any danger. Once we saw where it was clear we started zooming! People were going down head first and on their bums. At the end people were running down. It was heaps of fun. Thanks Miss Bain! :)

 Sand boarding!
Sand boarding was super duper fantastically great! Zooming down the dune flying through the air. Room 9 were at back beach sand dunes for activity week on Thursday the 12th of March 2015. My favourite part was when you crash and roll all the way down the hill but you get a mouthful of sand in your eyes. I love sand boarding.

On Activity week room 9, 8 and 7 went to Ngamotu beach next to the yatch club. Room 9 was the second class to be called out to go to the sand boarding area. We all got bodyboards with plastic on the bottom because they would go faster. Some people even got there own bodyboards. After we finished the safety rules we saw an adult demonstrate what to do.Then we decided we would only go from the middle because there was a heaps of sandstone blocking the way then we made a boy and girl line and went on two different sides to go quicker. We were so lucky and got about 7 goes. Since we had the plastic boards we went really fast.The annoying part was to climb back up. It was like climbing Mt Everest. We all got one more go and then we had to walk up all the stairs and get on the bus and go to the next activity.

On Thursday the 12th of March Room 7, 8 and 9 and the year fives in room 6 all went to Ngamotu Beach to do three activities: Sand sculpturing, Sandboarding at Back beach and Kayaking. My favourite activity was the Sandboarding at Back beach. Sandboarding was fun because lots of people got a lot of turns going down like myself. When you went down you were basically aloud to do anything you want to such as: Stand up, go on your knees. go on your bottom, lie down, go backwards, etc. I had a great time doing Sandboarding and I’m sure everybody else had a great time too!

For Activity week room 7,8 and 9 were lucky enough to come to Ngamotu beach to do
three activities, sandborading,sand sculpturing and kayaking. All three of them were so
much fun. Sand boarding was our second activity. First we got our boogie boards and then we
checked for any danger such as sharp rocks, grassroots etc. We then lined up in two lines
one boy line one girl line. We walked up the dunes and went down the dunes one by one. We
each got about 5 turns and then we had to catch the bus back to Ngamotu beach. Sand boarding was stupendously fun!

On Thursday 9th March Room 7, 8 and 9 went to Ngamotu beach for activity week. We then travelled by bus to Back beach with boogie boards. The sand dune was massive but we started halfway for safety. Most of us had more than four goes and had a wonderful time.  It was warm but not too hot which made it a perfect day. Check out the pictures!
