Bondi rescue

ballaratoscar

On a sunny day at Bondi the strong lifeguards get ready to start their hard shift for the day. Out of nowhere a kid was in a rip about 60 meters from shore.

One of the lifeguards grabs the blue surfboard and jumps out into the water. Going across the big waves the man reached the kid in 5 mins. The lifeguard reached in the water dragging the lifeless kid onto the board. The brave lifeguard raced to shore hoping the kid was going to be ok. The kid was not breathing when the ambulance came. The kid was 15.

The paramedics could not get him breathing again. They called a code black inferring the boy died. Bondi had not even had this in 5 years! Everyone was so sad.

Uncle Matty’s Christmas Eve party

On a sunny afternoon on Christmas Eve, Uncle Matty and Grecia had a party for all their families and friends.

Uncle Matty had a blow-up pool for ten people. Matty had a cool trick where he squirted shampoo in too the water; blew air in using a red blowing machine. I was excited! Because there were four people in there already, I stepped in rather than making a big splash. The water was warm and foamy. It tickled my back as I swam.

Through the afternoon the dancing happened. Music was being played. Grecia would ask someone to dance. Even though I played pool with Matty most of the time I did join in the dancing occasionally. One time I got on the box crate and did my small boogie dance. One-time Grecia was in the conga-rongo and two silly idiots wet everyone by jumping in the pool. This really annoyed them.

We had a bonfire before sunset and we all sat around and talked. After dark the dancing was still going. As we sat around the bonfire some people talked and some people spent some time on the screens. I played on the Nintendo Switch Santa gave me. I have my Boomerang Foo game. That’s my game that I usually play. Matt kept feeding the fire with wood so we could see the sparks that came out. The sparks danced in the air making pretty patterns. Eventually, it was time to come home. I had the best time of my life.

Boating with Tim, Dad, Mum and Louisa

On a sunny day in Cairns, Oscar, Arlo, Tim, Louisa, Dad and Mum  went to catch a vibrant grey boat to Fitzroy Island for a snorkel holiday; but we nearly missed it because we slept in and had to race to the boat. We stayed in a pretty good home really close to the sandy beach. The home had a spacious bathroom and a big BBQ. We all sat down and ate at our plastic six seater table. We swam in the beach with beautiful fish & a big, colourful turtle. It was fun because, well, I was on tropical island I guess!   The pool was the best. There was a swim up bar from which I bought  a refreshing coke. My dad got beer. I do not like Beer because it’s a disgusting drink. Also my Dad’s credit card had no money, but thankfully he got more money  back.

I went to Queensland because my Nana was here. I had the best home I had a pool in the front of my home and the pool was cold. I swam every day. It was fun sometimes it was so fun it is better than a bath. I broke my arm when I was playing soccer. Swimming was not fun anymore. I had  to put a plastic bag on my arm.         One day I jumped in without the plastic bag, but it was ok. I had a mango tree at the end of the garden. Some mangos came just before we left. They were delicious. I had I friend who came into my pool to play every day in the pool with me. Out outside under the verandah we had   a BBQ and we had a table so we can eat our dinner. My favourite meal was chicken kebabs. It is so good.
