Water Safety: Current Event - Tim

Water Safety


  1. Always wear a lifejacket all times above water and under water
  2. Make sure you are WEARING a life jacket
  3. Make sure you learn to swim
  4. Learn different ways to rescue people when they are in danger and you are nearby
  5. Swim between the flags at the beach
  6. supervise younger siblings when they are in water or near water
  7. Keep a good lookout when entering water
  8. Stay alert for hazards
Constable Aaron Furze said the man fished the area regularly.
The area where the man's body was found.
This is where the man’s body was found.
Fishermen went fishing by himself a spontaneously drowned, he had a life jacket with him but wasn’t wearing it. When witnesses found his body, the life jacket was wrapped around his arm, which kept him floating but didn’t keep him alive. Police was investigating and trying to figure out, how he fell and when he fell. The medical team check his body, they couldn’t figure what happened so they had to cut his body to check if it was murder or an accident. The medical team and the police, think it is an accident. The police and the medical team hasn’t found out what happened to his body.
The lesson in this article would be always wear a jacket on board even when you’re near water.


You do not want that situation happening to you.

In Order to achieve this you would have to put a lot of effort into your work, Lets just say it was worth it. You would have make good progress in your test/assessment. You would also need to solve maths problems and work on your maths multiplication quicker. You had better worked on your maths at home.

You would also need to achieve getting a prize giving award/Certificate. To achieve that goal you would have to come to school every day and work hard for that award/certificate to be yours. You would also need to have approximately 100 posts on my blog.
