Camp Reflection

Point England school has a senior camp for the last 23 years this year camp some of the year fives and year six’s like me ,went to camp .The groups were Cooperators, The Force, The Band, Opstars, True Crew, Synergy.My group was Synergy my team leaders were Asena and Iisa.We slept in tents outside the staff room.We had last week wednesday till friday.I have no idea why we had camp, but it was so cool.

My first activity was kayaking. Mr Burt said, “to get in your kayak safely you have to do foot bum foot”. I was in a double kayak with Page, we paddled out to the buoy and back. We had to keep in time while we were paddling. Page was is the front I had to copy what Page was doing and I was at the back we nearly crashed into the buoy. Our second group activity was blogging. We had to write about kayaking. It was pretty cool. Miss Va’afusuaga told our group that we had to write three paragraphs. When we had finished our blogging we practiced for the camp concert .The last activity of the day was Top Town with Mr Jacobsen. We would be competing against the Cooperators .We meet Mr J on the bottom field. He told us how to play the game. Mr J said “ you will need to work as a team to complete the game”. We rushed off to fill up water balloons for when we got to the battlegrounds to throw at the other team. My favourite part of this activity was the sling shot. I liked it because we all got to have a turn.

 On Thursday after breakfast and cleaning up my groups first activity was table tennis, basketball and rollerskating. We got to choose which activity we wanted to do, it was like having free time. After morning tea our group got split up into girls and boys. The boys went with Whaea Raewyn and the girls went to Mrs Clark for Catching and cooking we made anzac cookies and chocolate pikelets . The boys went to Omaru Creek with Whaea Raewyn to try and catch eels. I felt happy at camp. Next year I want to be a team leader for my group.

Swimming Reflection

Have you ever had swimming lessons before? Every day for the last week our class has been going swimming. We walked to the Glen Innes swimming pools and we swam for half an hour to learn how to be safe in the water .It is important to learn how to float I am in group three? My instructor is Josh I have learned how to do backstroke you have to do rocket arms and one arm across you ear at a time. I need to keep practising my freestyle without a flutter board I still can’t do freestyle because it is hard. P1140448
