Camp Kindness
As I come back home , groaning how tried was I hear " Kayla come here". "The me about Camp Kindness
I thought Orienteering was the most cooperative activity.We paired up to listen to Mr Jacobson talking.Then we set off for our first journey.At first I found it very confusing and difficult, but in the end it was OK , even though I didn't get it right . It was still fun.
Later on our group had camp cooking . The girls and boys split up so all the girls would be off baking and all the boys went off with a different teacher. We made these sponge cakes with pink food colouring covering it all witch is cover in coconut bits. I found out that it was Delicious.We didn't taste it ,a couple of adults quickly took one of these delicious tasting deserts,and told us how beautiful they were .
The next day we went rock climbing. I had a stab of fear shoot through my chest , as I stared climbing the wall. I had to wait at the top as I got there for the other showing person . He was in a perfect situation. It took him about one minute and a half. eventually he got to the top . The worst part was getting down . I swung from side to side .When I got down to the bottom my legs were shaking in terror. Then after every one had a turn at climbing that wall we split into groups. I went with Miss king and we climbed a wall called Jack 'n' the bean stalk . That wall was the hardest to me, because the obstacles were really thin and it would sometimes crack and that made me scared.
At the end of the three full of exciting days I had a great week of half school and half day I really enjoyed it and I can't wait to back next

Kayla reflects on Day One Camp Kindness
Today was the first day of Pt England School's year 5/6 and 7 camp of 2010.I thought everyone was going to be really excited and and couldn't wait . Most people have done this before, but I haven't so I was super excited. As we walked in the line to go to cooking, it was only the girls so I thought it would be so cool. We made Lamingtons! We were rolling them in coconut bits in the tray, and just looking at it made me want to grab it all and just nibble on it. I bet everyone else did!Walking on the hot green grass, thinking "What's going to happen when everyone starts kyaking?" As Mr Burt was talking , everybody sitting on the rocky hard sand, I could see the boys really wanted to just jump in! But no, they had waited till they got choosen.When I was in the kiak I got really scared that I was going to flip right over when the murky waves came rolling past. SPLASH!!!I hear as I come past when Hilary flips her kiak in the water .She asks me to hop in too. I said no ."I dont want to get into that salty green water "I told Hilary as I paddled away.
After we walked back throught the gusting wind, talking away, we finally got back to our fine school ready to have our lunch. With all the cooking that the children made, and fruit that we brought, everyone had something.
Then after lunch we gathered our bags and packed them into our tents before we left to play games. I set up my sleeping bag and I had to be in the middle so that was a bit upsetting but it's ok I guess.
Later on we're going to the Glen Innes pools to have a swim and then have a shower. Then after that we will walk back.
