Kids Safety Day

It was hot and stuffy outside but that didn’t stop my family and I from going to the Kids Safety Day in Gi. The event was happening at the car park in between the library and the police station. It was to tell kids how to be safe on the road.

As soon as I got there, all I saw a sea of kids and adults. They were either lining up to get a sausage, going to see whats wrong with their bikes or watching the performances on stage. It was so cool! “ Go wait in line over there so you can get your tires pumped up”  Mum instructed.

While I was waiting I looked around and I saw lots of activities that looked like fun. There was a pimp my bike competition where you had to decorate your bike. Who ever had the coolest bike won a prize. A bike riding circle was also put up. Kids road around in their bikes and went over bumps that was set up along the way.

I was almost at the front of the line when Rita came and stood next to me. She was with her mum and brother, James. We started talking and that was when Constable Scott announced that there was going to be a dance competition. Rita shot off to go and dance. The next thing I knew she was up on stage with other kids doing the Dougie. Three different songs played and in all of them you had to do a different dance move. The contestants were judged on crowd reacted.  Rita was missed out and no one could vote for her. “ Better luck next time” I said to my mum.


After I pumped up my tires, I took it for a ride. I saw James ride up and I think he was looking for Rita. Dad came and got me. “Do you want breakfast or what?” Down to the bakery we went and I got a mince and cheese pie. YUMMY!  Everyone gulped down their last piece of pie and it time was time to go home.

Exhausted from all the bike riding, I slouched on the couch and nearly fell asleep. The Kids Safety Day was fun and I now know more about how to be safe when it comes to riding my bike.
