Yr 5/6 Camp 2017

This year the year 5&6’s went to the year 5&6 camp at school on the field on March the 8th, on Wednesday to Friday in term 1. I was so excited I was packing my stuff in a rush only so i

didn’t have to forget anything and I kept on checking my bag just to see if I've got everything.

Do you know what is camp? Well i’m gonna tell you about my camp. Camp is when you sleep in a tent at with 1-3 at school. It sounds weird but it’s actually fun, we also do activities at school. The activities are Killer zone now Killer zone isn’t when you kill someone it’s when you verse only one team that’s not in your group and then you MrJ blew his trumpet and then we ran to the first one. It was kind of hard. We used squared board to get to the other side because if you walk or step on the grass you might get eaten and well you do throw water balloons at each other but it doesn’t hurt it’s just fun, there was Get lost and it’s not when you get lost in the maze or when you can get lost and do nothing it’s when you go into 8 groups of 4 or 5 people and you have to work as a team so pretty much it’s teamwork, it’s when you work with your teammates through all the activities with your brain and your technique to pass all of them. That was fun. Also there was kayaking, in kayaking it was so fun because I was the first one to go to the pole with the green triangle at the top of the pole and some people were kind of impressed that I could go around the pole like a lot of times and some people were struggling, we also went to the pools I went swimming in the pools on the first day but I didn’t swim on the second day but of course I would swim on the last day and lastly we had the concert if you don’t know what a concert is i’m gonna tell you, a concert is when you perform or other people perform on the stage and you do a dance with all your pride and talent. I forgot there was also the last one that forgot was playing in the hall. It’s sounds dumb but there was ping pong, basketball, trampoline mat, the stage, there was scooters, skateboards and roller skates.

My favourite parts about camp was kayaking that was my favourite part because some people were falling out of their kayak but it was kind of sad to and I was the first person to paddle to the pole near the deep end. I also like in kayaking that I went around the pole probably 5 or 6 times and everyone was cheering for me because I was so good at kayaking in my group. I felt so proud of myself. Another highlight like a liked was playing in the hall because we got to play with the scooters, skateboards, roller skates, little trampoline mat, ping pong and lastly basketball. I liked playing in the hall because we all got to have fun and play around and practice on the stage.  

Well I want to thank all the teachers that help and looked after us while we sleep at night because if they didn’t look after us we would probably be very cold and the tents might of fell down and we would be so cold. I thank all the adults who made camp, there wouldn’t be camp without the teachers and parents help make camp and i’m so grateful that we have a camp. Also I thank the helpers that cooked the food and gave out the food to us if we didn’t have them we would be starving so everyone should be thankful for everyone that made camp because camp is amazing and no one should be sad on the day of camp. I’m so thankful for everything that happened at camp even though in was raining hard everyone had a great time at camp. I forgot to say thank you to Daisy and Jaylim for leading us and even handling all the noise, you guys were awesome out there and we came 3rd place because you guys lead us to victory. Thank you all for helping us.

I learnt how to work as a team and I learnt how to be responsible and I love that I learnt something if I didn’t learn anything I would probably be the same person before we started camp so that's what I learnt.
