For Kiwi sport it was the last week. For today we got to wear the life jackets. We first put the life jackets on and we did our safe entry into the water. We first had to swim to the wall and get into a group. We had to grab each other's life jacket and lay on our back. This was a chain pose and we had to move our feet to push us to the other side and back. We then had to get into a circle holding each other's life jacket and then let the smallest person into the middle so that the other people can keep the small person warm. The other way of doing this if you are alone is to tuck your knees into your chest and then use your arms to tight your legs to your chest. This is the HELP pose. HELP stands for Heat, Escape, Lessening, Pose. Lastly we did our pencil entry. We had to put one hand behind our head and the other on our shoulder using one foot to step into the water. We all had to do it and then we jumped into the water and then high five the instructors as we are jumping in. We then had to shower with the life jacket and put them away. I felt great and happy.
