The wind rustled through the brush of the forest, blowing our hair, giving some, goose bumps. The faint sound of the ocean sung as we scanned the radiant view. A few shivered, while some blindly walked across the green, grassy surface of the ground of Long Bay.
I surveyed my surroundings before sitting down on the cold ground, others either sat on the provided picnic tables, or stood not wanting to sit. Quickly we were put into lines, before disappearing into the trees to do our activities.
Silence surrounded the area, only a few chirps from nearby birds, and mumbling from our group. Sarah quietly spoke to us about the lake-like part of the beach, that we stood before. She said to look for items that didn’t seem to ‘belong’ at the beach, we found a few pieces of rubbish. We then ventured to the rock pool, where water tackled the rock ledge and a sense of adventure surged everyone. We filled our treys with creatures, then talked about them.
After eating our packed lunches, we then trudged back down to the beach. With open eyes we searched for dead creatures, yeah, for some reason we had to find dead fish. I kinda forget why. We found a massive, translucent jelly fish. It looked similar to gigantic blob of jelly, but not as appetizing.
We then did a little quiz, with some active questions that had us laughing. Not soon after we began departing from the tree enclosed area back to the road. Finally after a fairly loud bus rise, we arrived back to school.
My favourite part of the day was when we were able to wander around the windy, rock pool. I learnt a lot about marine animals, and it was really fun.
Fantastic use of the verb surveyed Danielle. This is a great recount on the main parts of the day. Be sure to proof read carefully. You've made a couple of typo's that wouldn't be picked up by spell check, have a quick read through and see if you can find them both.
