On the 20th Of June 2022 Kirkcolm, Leswalt, and Portpatrick P7’s travel to Agnew park to participate in fun water games and water sports, held by Stranraer Water Sports Association (SWSA, For short)
After they loaded off the bus they went to meet the staff and equipped their wet suits.
They then enjoyed a few games before getting their life jackets on ready to have some great fun!
Then after all that and safety talk it’s finally time to hit the water! They enjoy splashing and kicking the water, almost making sure their shoes get soaked, until it’s time to submerge the rest of their body. Again assuring to get completely wet.
After the joyous screaming had passed it was time to move onto paddle boarding and kayaking! This was performed in two separate groups.
By the time that was over it was time to get their lunch bags, and dig in!!
As the saying goes, time flies by, and with all the excitement it quickly went on to heading back to the water and going on a final paddle board trip as a whole to take on a raft making challenge by joining all the paddleboards together.
Then after the long day of fun and games they ended it with some ice cream and a calm bus ride home.
Thank you to the instructors and volunteers at the watersports centre. Thank you too to Mr White for our ice-cream treat!
