What was new for you? Defiantly swimming with all those colourful fish in the massive beach.

Goat Island trip

So at school  we went to goat island for a learning experience to go see the environment. When we were driving I got to see a lot of stuff like the city buildings that were 8 story five story more.

When being in the city it is  scary because there is a lot of traffic and you could get in a crash easily. When we drove out of the city we went on this massive bridge called the harbour bridge which is a massive bridge.

When we got to goat island when we got there, it had been two hours when we were on that bus.  When we got there we saw Fazer is a person who works at the zoo. I got picked first to go snorkelling with a big group, so right after changing into my swim gear I had to put my swimsuit on.

That was horrible because it was so tight then the people told me that's too small then they gave me, a size up in a swimsuit that was kind of easy to put on.  After putting my swimsuit on they gave me my snorkel gear first up were my flippers I had to get the right size for my feet, and my goggles and breather were next they all were perfect fits.

When we had to pick partners I picked Savior because he is nice and friendly. When we got down to the beach we used tooth paste for our googles so they won't fog up.  When we started to get in the water we had to walk back wards because if we had walked, forwards we would have tripped over in our flippers.

When we started to get in our board I started to see snapper already just swimming around close to shore, but the cool part is how fast and big they were. I was horrified thinking they would bite until realising we are the natural predators to fish the fish.

When we started heading out to the deeper areas  we saw more fish swimming under us and when we dive down over, but the coolest part was when one fish was so close to me it touched with my hands it was so cool.

But me and Savior saw so many fish like in groups of fish that were massive. Once we saw a snapper family,swimming then we got to goat island after a long time then me and Savior raced back to the shore very quickly.

Then we had to do the lessons given by faze, the first lesson was using those massive zoo goggles when looking around it made, everything so close to us. When we were looking at the seagulls it looked like I could hold it in my hand. We started to take a look at the beach roles to catch and not release or kill will bee fined 15,000 dollars.

Then we went down to the rock pools to go see all those little and hidden animals like lobster crab star fish and more when we went to the, pools. I started to do some jumps onto rocks then started to make massive jumps over the rock pools but there was one jump that was far and no one saw , then we left because every one had changed and stopped snorkelling and went back to school.
