I'm really sorry I haven't been posting! I'm just terrible at doing things regularly. :I
I did an essay for schoolwork you might like to read and a bunny update afterwards, so here* it is:
OVERSEAS
“SWIM SCHOOLS”
People
are in danger of drowning. We should do all we can to help.
The World Health Organisation wants
something done about the high levels of drowning in regions such as India and
Bangladesh, so swimming teachers are being sent overseas to help increase water
safety knowledge and swimming ability.
Simple information -such as, “drinking
alcohol before swimming is a bad idea” or “stay on guard around kids and
water” which many of us take for granted- may save the life of many in such
areas. Even in places like Australia, where we are very privileged with proper
water safety education, the drowning levels are much too high.
Even
if you don’t have a pool at home, there are still some simple steps you can take
to lower the risk of drowning:
- Tell your parents, siblings and friends some of the simple essentials about water safety and ask them to convey them to their friends (adults will probably know all the basics).
- Research the Guidelines for Safe Pool Operation or GSPO on the website for Royal Life Saving (listed in the sources) and share them with your friends and family.
These simple pieces of advice can save
lives so we should be grateful and glad that we have such easy, trouble-free access
to this guidance and swimming programs.

Currant bun the rabbit is a big fan of cardboard boxes,cucumber, and apple tree bark. He also likes dandelion leaves. (The others try to feed him the FLOWERS lol no matter how many times I tell them I MEANT the leaves and he just eats them. And thoroughly enjoys them.)
