Year 8 Camp Experience.
The year 8 leadership camp will be a memorable experience.
Wednesday the 19th of May was the first day of the Year 8 Leadership Camp!. We all gathered in the school hall and Mrs Tele’a explained to us about the “O le ala i le pule o le tautua” ( To severe others in different ways). We got on two different buses, I was on the bus with the other team Thames, our drive to camp was 1.5 hours but it felt like 3 hours.
On our first day of camp ( Wednesday ) we got introduced to a person named Zac. Zac explained our boundaries and some other things, everyone then walked to the camp hall and we played cross games.
( Cross Games is a fun activity we did, all the teams had to make a chant, we had a ref off, and we also did some other activities ).
Our first night at camp was really terrible because the cabin I was in kept on talking and most of us girls in the cabin kept laughing. We had two or three teachers come to our cabin more than twice because my cabin kept talking.
My first Highlight has to be Go Karts because it was a fun experience to do. At first I was nervous to go onto the Go Karts, but my team Coromandel B was very supportive to each other and we all had a go even though we were all nervous to go on, everyone all had four turns on the Go Karts.
My Second Highlight is Camp Search because ( Coromandel B ) worked as a team, we had a strong communication with each other, and even though we had a member in our team that was injured we never gave up. Our team was also very shocked of our time because we broke the record, Kauri team girls was coming with first with 23 minutes and our team
( Coromandel B ) had won by 14 minutes.
My third highlight would be the Polynesian dinner night, this is another highlight of mine because it was an enjoyable night. What I enjoyed the most about that night was the food and the karaoke we did. The food we had was Nachos. It was amazing !For dessert we had Churros and vanilla ice cream. This was my favourite highlight out of all .
Year 8 leadership camp was a fun experience. The point of this camp was to step up and be a leader, to get out of your comfort zone and try new things you haven't tried before.
I would like to Thank all the teachers / parents who gave up their time to let us Year 8s have a fun camp.
