Year 6 Camp

On the 20th of november the years 6’s from Pt England school went to camp bentzon on kawau island. We had a awesome time.





First we had to get to school by 7:15. Then we had a talk before we had to jumped on the bus to get to Sandspit. After that we had to unload our bags from the bus onto the fairy then the capin of the ship came and told us the rules for the fairy. The fairy's name was Kawau Kat. after all of that traveling we got there. Then we walked up killer hill, killa hill is called killer hill because we are killing it but sometimes it will killing us.









The next day was the day we started our activities. We were told we were getting wet the hole day. Our first activity was kayaking, we kayaked to stingray bay where we saw lots of stingrays there were even eagle rays. Then we had to try and stand and kayak, when I stood up I straight away fell. It was scary because I thought the stingray was gonna come and sting me with its tale then the lady who runs the camp helped me her name is eren and her husband peter. The we had lunch after that we walked down to the beach so we can raft a boat that can try and get to the ponton so we made it and put it in the water it straight away sinked and we lost. Next we went to bivouac where we had to build a house that our whole team can fit in but we forgot the water so we just built it without any water. It was kinda fun because we didn't get wet. Our next activities was sailing it was fun because we were going back and forward, it was peter who was running the sailing.






It was 3rd day of year 6 camp and our first activite was the concourse. It was about us beating our fairs like heights we had to climb lots of stuff there was one where we’d had to climb this tall thing. The man who was running it was a man, named Mr jacobson when we got to the top he would say hug your mumma. Which meant hug the pole and get on the other side and climb down. Our next activite was burma we had to get a partner, and one of us had to put on a blindfold and my partner would guard me through the woods till we get back to camp. Next we had orienteering, it was a pretty hard activate for me because we had to find lots of words that were hidden we had a paper of cules too help us find them. We had to climb some of killer hill to find some words. Our last activity was abseiling, it was hard because the wall was so tall we had to climb up and climb down. We were so lucky that she was a pro at abseiling her name was maddie. After we all had a turn some people from some other teams came and had a another turn.






I’d like to say thank you to peter and eran for this camp on kawau island. I also wanna thank the bus driver for taking us to sand spit and the captain of the ship for taking us to kawau island.I liked to thank all the helpers who helped us to get to year 6 camp
