CAMP 07


I am so looking forward to camp. I’ve been going over checking my bag over and over again to make sure I didn’t forget anything. I am waving to school now, as I walk onto the bus. The bus ride wasn’t really boring because I tried to do things to amuse myself. When Mr.C said there is about 62 km left, then I wanted to teleport there. When we got there I was relieved. My friends were in cabin 8. We got into groups shortly after we unpacked our bags. Our group was called the creeps, then Mr.C read what each group was doing first, we had canoeing. I was looking forward to canoeing more than anything. I was so excited when I saw all the canoes in the shed. Amanda, Desmond and I went to lift one up but we didn’t predict it was going to be that heavy. I was partners with Desmond for canoeing. I went at the back of the canoe because Mr.C said grade 6’s were to go at the back because they have more experience. I was hardly in place when Mr.C suddenly pushed the canoe into the water. I was not expecting it, so my heart beat hard for a second. I did canoeing last year so I didn’t have a problem. When Mr.C said there was a wallaby drinking by the lake. Desmond and I paddled very fast towards it as we couldn’t see it from where we were. I was so amazed because when we got there it didn’t go away. When we finished we went back to the recreation room and went on to our next activity which was bike riding. Bike riding was fun especially the end when we went up and down a hill. For dinner we had fish and vegetables, it was nice and the fish melted in my mouth. At night it was so fun because we talked, played, let off fart bombs and went into other people’s cabins. Nathan, Michael and I stayed up the whole night. The first activity the next day was orienteering. Orienteering was probably the worst activity. Then we took photos, that was good because it was a great chance to get good photos. Mapping wasn’t the best of activities. Next we had ropes coarse which was also good. The very last activity was archery. Archery was so good that it was probably the best, I got in the yellow circle. Next we got dress ready for the concert. The concert was good there were some funny acts. The disco was O.K but I started to fall asleep, I shouldn’t of stayed up all night. At night I couldn’t stay up so I just went to sleep. In the morning I packed up all my stuff. We went on a walk then we stoped to do hut building. Our hut was bad. The bus home wasn’t to bad. When we got back, I had to wait for ages for my mum. It was a very fun camp.
