Listen to the podcast of Yusra Mardini or read her story on her website.
On your blog, retell the story of this brave young woman from Syria.
Yusra Mardini and her Older sister had to leave Syria because the war was starting. When she was leaving on the boat 15 minutes into the ocean the boats engine failed and so as a professional swimmer Yusra dived into the water and towed the boat by her swimming she was great at. That day she had saved 20 people. She had been very brave.

What did you think of Yusra’s story? You have retold her story well. I agree with you, she certainly was very brave to do what she did to help. How do you think she would have been feeling when she realised the boats engines had failed?
I am looking forward to reading more of your SJ posts over the next couple of weeks.
