THE PENPOL TIMES

The Bluff Beach

Class 1 and 2 had a great time at the Bluff Beach.

We dug sandcastles, climbed some rocks and played in the sand.

The life guards Charlie and Ben kindly spoke to the children about beach safety and let us have a go in on their quad bike and beach buggy.

We persevered the weather and played to few fun beach games including fish, fish crab and running races.

 

After a picnic on the beach we had another play and dig before heading back to school.

A lovely day at the beach was had by all. Thank you Ben and Charlie for looking after us and showing us how you keep everyone safe on the beach.
