Year 5 Camp - Spencer Park

Nikki McCartin —

The weather was great, the company was awesome and the adventures were tenfold! Here's some of our favourite things about Year 5 camp.

Riley: My favourite part was orienteering because Mrs Q was holding the wrong way and we had to keep telling her to turn it around! The beds were nice and comfortable.

Richie: My favourite part of camp was the bike ride because I had fun riding past the soldiers and going through the massive puddle, I got soaked. I liked orienteering too because it was fun, we met up with Tracey's group and we got lost so we had to walk down the beach to find our way back.

Andee: I liked bike riding because we went through the forest and we were yelling and it echoed all around.

Jessie: I liked biking because we went over huge bumps and steep hills, it was really fun going through the puddles.

Jax: My favourite thing was biking because I was at the front and I love mountain biking. We got to go over jumps and I went down over the wooden edge by accident but I saved myself and I didn't fall off.

Kahu: I found two dead fish on the beach, I scared people with them. I fell off my bike quite a lot but I still had fun.

Eli: Biking was my favourite thing because we got to go over big hills. Orienteering was fun because if you got lost you just needed to head toward the beach.

Dillyn: I liked doing the bike ride because it was really fun and there were lots of bumps. Orienteering was quite fun especially when we were walking along the beach. When we went to the beach, Niamh and I decided to dig a hole but Envy's was bigger. People made canoes, boats and cars out of the sand. I wished we could have gone swimming!

Violet: I like orienteering because it was fun trying to find all the numbers especially number 6...we didn't find it!

Grace: My favourite was when we went biking on the road because I hadn't done it before, it was my first time and it was a cool experience.

Envy: I really liked the bike ride because we went on the BMX track and I liked the movie SING.

Stanley: When we were orienteering I looked for Big Foot and I almost found him...

Niamh: Camp was fun. I liked the biking, the BMX track was really fun. 

Jayde: When we were sleeping my friends kept talking, it was 5am! When we were biking it made me happy because I love biking. 

Frankie: I liked sleeping at school camp, it felt like we were having a giant sleepover. I really liked how my room was full with all my friends, I felt really comfortable with them all there.  I really liked the movie SING. Biking was really fun because my group went on a bike ride with hills and bumps that we could go up and down on. 

Emily: I really liked orienteering because it was fun. When we tried to find number 7 we could not find it no matter where we looked, we thought we found it and started cheering but we were wrong!

Mac: We went biking to the Fairy Doors. I like riding through the big puddles and going over the big hills.

Zoe: I liked looking at the The Fairy doors some there were big and small ones and the big mushrooms we found in the forest looked like dinner plates.

Kyle: My favourite thing was the bike riding because there were lots of hills and jumps and puddle. We biked to the Fairy Doors. We saw soldiers training in the forest, they looked cool.
