On Tuesday my year 7/8 school went on camp to Wainui YMCA camp we were staying there for 3 nights. We went on a bus and it took 1 hour and a half to bus there and then we had to stop halfway and had to walk for 3 hours up there. We had to go up hill and down hills and some hills were really steep. It was very muddy and all of our shoes were getting wet and muddy but it was a good exercise.
When we finally got there we sat down and our teachers told us our instructions on what we were doing. Once we found out the instructions we went into our bunk rooms and I was in cabin 3 with some of my friends and some other people like Ella,Neila,Harriet,Hannah,Joanna,Roza and Becky. We unpacked our bags and got our camp room ready and our teachers sometimes had to do a room inspections so our camp buck rooms were tidy and my camp rooms passed.
Next we had to come in the living rooms and sit down and we soon went straight into our activates for the day we did 2 activities every 4 nights and that activities were
kayaking
coasteering
orienteering
search and rescue
high ropes
outdoor leaving
archery
breakout
raft building
They were all really fun to do. After we all did our 2 activates in our groups we had a camp firer and that was really fun to we got to roast marshmallow and our instructors where singing and doing stuff silly and that was funny. It was a really fun night for the first night. The couple of next nights we had to write a reflections our books we brought from school and write half a page here is what I wrote:
What I learnt at camp was learning the activates and something That I found challenging was going to sleep and not talking also some actives were challenging. What I liked was when we were in our actives groups I got to know people that I wasn't close with. I am grateful for the teachers who put this camp together and organized it all. And with the parents who cam and helping out. What my favorite thing at camp was going in the water and having fun my also favorite thing was everything else.
Camp was really fun and I enjoyed it lots and hope to do it again sometime.
Thanks for ready my long blog.
