Stella's Bushwalk Whistle

Stella's class goes on a sunny bushwalk to follow a clue trail through the green bush. Before they leave, Mr. Green teaches the children how to use a whistle if anyone gets separated. Stella is confident she will not need the rule, but after following a bright blue wren and losing sight of the class, she remembers to stop, breathe, and blow three times. Mr. Green follows the whistle sounds and finds her waiting safely by a large rock. Back with the group, Stella records the lesson, checks her gear, and learns that bravery can mean staying calm and asking for help.
