Picnic

On Friday our whole school went down to the beach, But Somethings i enjoyed about picnic is bonding with most of the year 7 and 8s it was a very fun day down at the beach. Because all you could do is just kick back or play some sports or go to the beach and swim. It was very cool playing touch with all the boys and we played touch for 2 hours non stop that was very cool. And some X students of Pt England played to it was fun playing with them but the school choose a very good day to go down because it wasn't raining but it was a nice and sunny day. Lastly what i enjoyed most was bonding with the boys and some girls more because it was the last year for us year eights.
