Camp Reflection

Camp


This week me and my class went on camp to Fox glacier my first favorite part was Lake  Mapourika . When we got there everyone saw the jetty and we ran on to it and looked around I wanted to jump in with my cloths on but I didn’t. I ran back to the car and put my togs on and ran to the teacher to get my cap. Everyone was on the jetty waiting for one of the parents to get in Ngaio was the first parent to get in. All the boys jumped in then most of the girls but I ran off the jetty to feel how cold the water was it was really cold but I thought to myself oh well and ran back and jumped in it was colder then when I put my hand in. I swam back to shore shaking but I got back on the jetty and I was just about to jump in but my awesome teacher Miss Panther asked if she could video me in slow mo and I said sure I thought maybe I can try to do and 3 - 60 but when I did it didn’t work as well as I planned when I got out of the water I watched the video it was so funny. But for little while I was a little sore but it was fun I keeped on swimming for another hour then we left for the next activity.   

 

My second favorite thing was the Kiwi house we had to wait there for a while for some other people but when we went in. We had line up outside this door the lady there opened the door as you walked through you had to put a band on so they knew you were meant to be there but as you walked in there was another lady with a cart full of stuff to explain to us about the kiwi but after she finished talking we were aloud to go have a look around. There were stairs you go up when you went down the other side the was a little machine that explained about the glacier but there were people on it but when my group was called up to go have a look at the kiwi I was so excited I love kiwi’s. As we walked into the room to look at them you could see one straight away it was so cute but once I got bored of looking at that one I looked at the other one you could barely see it but then we had to leave to let another group in it was great.   



My third favorite thing was playing spotlight at Fox glacier school the principal was very nice his name was Caspar he was nice enough to let us play spotlight. When we started to play we had  
100 seconds to hide I ran to the end of the field most people did. The same thing everyone was way to loud people were screaming across the field but I was quiet it was fun me and Felix hid in the same bush but when I heard Summer and Kash coming everyone went quiet but I moved to another bush then I was caught. Then Summer gave me the torch and said go to Miss Panther sit down and count to 100 so I did. Once I was done I ran to the end of the field and when I shone the torch at the bushes then I saw three people and yelled caught and told them to go to Miss Panther and then it went on for a while.

Those are my favorite things from camp.
