CONFIDENCE COURSE BY BRIGHT AND JOSH

We did timed races.  There were 11 tasks.  First the big log, horseshoes, wall, balance on a log, go through a tunnel, swing around on a spinner, then a rock climbing task, the monkey bars, walk the rollers and Aayush was the best.  Josh did OK though it was challenging. It was scary on the wall.

My favourite thing about the camp was caving, as I  hadn't been underground before.
The camp was fun and tiring.  Thankyou Mr T

Abseiling BY CADYN, JAYDIN

Climbing on Thursday we went abseiling down the water slide.   I got scared but it was awesome.  Fist we had to put our harness on.  I had trouble putting it on.  I learned how to do abseling.   I loved  abseling and I would love to do it again.     On Thursday before we went to have free time, everyone had the most awesome time abseiling.

BIVOUACS by Sarah ,Laura,Tyler

Yeah finally my group gets to do bivouacs with Mr T.  First we had to collect branches, sticks and leaves.  MrT already had the bamboo for us to make the frame.  Secondly we had to make the frame and tie it all together so it would hold together.  Thirdly we had to pile the leaves, branches and sticks on.  Lastly we had to layer ground with comfy leaves when we were finished MrT took a photo of  us in our bivouac and gave us our score.  It was 9 and a half.

CAVING by James and Jack.C

Im so excited.  Today were going caving!I didnt wake up early enough to have breakfast though.  Afterwards we got in cars and left.  After a bit we found the cave! We had to walk through some bush.  Then I saw a big black hole with a stream running through it.  We walked on a cliff type part.  We had to walk through some water and man was it cold.  There was some tree blockage and the branches were slippery and wobbly.  There was a big drop so Mr.T helped us.  Next some more blockage then a big slippery log.  Then nice grippy rocky flat place and lots and lots of glow worms.  After that we got out of the cave and had some food then left.

WATERSLIDES BY HOLLIE AND KAREN

Wow what an awesome time on Camp.  Karen and I are doing a topic about watersliding.  Each day if we wanted to we went watersliding.   Thursday we were allowed to do triples and doubles.   Me, Tyler and Nina did  the pyramid it was so fun but me and Nina got red knees it really hurt.   But it wasn't fear on Tyler because she didn't get a go sitting on top of us she really wanted a go but Nina said no.   So me and Tyler went with Sherly but she chickened out.   So Tyler ended up sitting on top of me and it didn't hurt at all. She was light but after I got very sore knees.  They were bright red and really sore the next day.  It was awesome but it hurt.  My favourite thing about  watersliding was triples.

MINIBOATS BY PENAIA AND KYLE

Mr T shouted at us to come to the meeting area.  He was happy and bouncing around the meeting area.  He told us that we were having a mini boat race.  Everyone got to work and made a boat. Then Mr T called us back to the meeting area.  James and Kyle made a raft called luck of the Irish.  Then we went down to the river and off they went.  They went down the rapids.  At the end we got to blow the boats up.  Our favourite thing was blowing the boats up.

RIVER BY MICHAELA , NINA

On the 2nd day we went to the river.  I was going swimming but it was cold but I was swimming any way.   We were jumping off the side.  It was fun but very cold when my head came under the water. After that I asked   MrT if he wanted me to go and get some rocks from the deepest place in the river.  It was awesome and cold!
Amazing!! On the 16th of March we went to the river. I thought it was warm.  I swam across the river  7 times.  It was really exciting.  We got some tubes I swam under the people in the tubes. It was awesome and want to do it again!
