Year 7 Crusader Camp Lake Macquarie 2009

Tuesday, March 17, 2009
Year 7 this year welcomed 38 new students so three days spent at Lake Macquarie on camp was a great way to get to know each other. Students enjoyed a range of activities and challenges.

Here are some comments from students:
I liked the activities because they gave us the opportunity to do things that we couldn’t do at home.  The activities were great, but not too extreme.

The food wasn’t as good as mum makes. However, the Crusader staff were friendly and made us feel welcome and they gave great Christian talks.

Canoeing

I didn’t like building the raft because it collapsed when we put it in the water. Then everyone fought over whose idea we should use for the second attempt.

Fishing

If you weren’t mature enough you wouldn’t be able to stand the showers or the cabins!  The cabins could be lighter with more cheerful colours!  Also, they needed more ventilation.

It was a fun camp with happy people. It was like a holiday.

The Bible talks and study groups were very good. The Crusader leaders knew what they were talking about. I learnt heaps.

Rock Climbing

The highlight of the camp was eating lollies, even though we there wasn’t a lot.

The leaders at camp were so friendly. The discussion time was good because coming from a public school with camps to an amazing Christian camp is really good.

Sailing

I wanted hair straighteners at the camp but there were none in the bathrooms.

The day activities were all fun and I conquered some of my fears.  My favourite moment was when I went down the wall at abseiling, because I hate heights, but I still did it.
