Events

On Monday, the sixteenth of March, year five and six went on a camp.  Year five went to ‘Telford and Skinners’ in the Royal National Park.  My mum came to camp with me as a parent helper.  We got on buses at nine thirty.  When we got there it was very beautiful.  There was a big blue lake.  I was in group A.  Our first activity after lunch was to go on a cruise.  That was lots of fun because the guy who drove explained about the Aborigines living along the lake which was really interesting. 


Next was sailing.  We took turns going on the boats and while we were waiting, we fished off the dock.  When I was sailing it was fun because when it was tipping, we got to lean back and put our heads in the water.  The next morning after breakfast we had Christian Discovery.  That day we did abseiling but I didn’t like that very much because the harness hurt me a lot.

Next was the ….WATERSLIDE!!!  The waterslide was one of my favourite things on camp.  It was really fun when I went with Miss Hammond because I went really, really fast.  The next activity was canoeing.  I like it but it was a bit hard coming back against the wind.  That night we had a great time.  We had a talent show. I dressed up as a German because we had to dress up as something starting with your name.  My talent was telling jokes with Danni.  It was very fun seeing everybody’s talents.  At the end of it we played some games in the hall. 



On the last day we did low ropes.  It was heaps of fun.  My favourite part was the flying fox. 


We left the campsite after lunch and we watched ‘Over the Hedge’ on the way home.
