Swim Safe 4.
Today was our last day to have Tracy for Swim Safe. We knew we had to float on our backs for a long time, and to practise as if we have had an accident at sea in our bouncing boats.
The pool was as cold as ice cool beer. The pool was as smooth as paper. The pool was as clear as a ice cube.
We walked down to the pool to get changed. The sun was an orange balloon. The pool was as shiny as a brand new car.
We put our clothes that were as light as a feather then we carefully slid into the calm full water, but once they were wet they were as heavy as a rock. The pool was as blue as light blue dye. We were as calm as ever. We floated on our back, kicking like a motor, for ten minutes, it was exhausting. Fear hit me as I was floating. The water was as clear as a ice cube. The sun was as bright as neon yellow.
We learnt that clothes can be really dangerous to swim in or be wearing in water once they get very wet and weighty. My friends were frozen ice cubes but I wasn’t cold. Most of us were tough and just swam through the ice. Our faces were as red as if I had put red lipstick on my face. Nevaeh and I hoped out really fast before we got to the good bit. The good bit was when we quickly chucked on our light clothes, until… SPLASH some of us jumped in the pool that nobody even saw, oh no! the clothes, they’re to heavy.
