The Rata Tree And The Quiz ( Day 2 )

Here is my Day 3 at camp that is called the Rata tree
 and the Quiz and there are also photos of the Rata tree.I hope you like it. :-)
                          The Rata Tree  
    The Rata tree is aged from 800-1,000 years old it is 13 meters round the base of the tree. I know that because we all went around the tree with all of the girls and then all of the boys did the same holding hands. ( “Oh” and I kissed it )The rata tree is really really tall. When we were visiting the big tree some of us got to climb it and go through to the other side of the tree when we climbed it. Then we got out of the tree  and had biscuits and apples for morning tea and a lollie each. Then we went back to the vans and head back to camp.
Here are some pictures of me and the Rata tree.





                  


The Quizz
Tonight we are having a quizz night and we will have to work with our camp groups. So then that means we have to challenge 5 camp groups and six including our team. So this is prob going to be a hard Quizz But I can do it. So here we are sitting on the sets around the table waiting for the teacher to come in the door with the sheet for the Quizz. Yayyyy!! the teacher is here and we have finally started the Quizz. And now the Quizz is nearly over and when its over we go to bed sadly. :-( But that's alright because there's always another day to come. :-)

My Kereru Art


This is my Kereru art from the book called as Kuku slept. 
it only toke 2 days to finish! I hope you like it.
     

  KERERU
VS
     POSSUM
1. The Kereru Is one of New Zealand's native bird.

1. the possum is a pest to us and a predator to the Kereru.
2. their beaks are so big that they can eat one whole berrie and then they poo it out on the ground and it spreads from the rain to help the plants grow.

2. the possum is also a clever creature and they are actually quite smart.





My Earthquake Story

  Here is my earthquake story that I have finally 
finished! I hope you like it :-)   
       The Earthquake

I was just sitting down on the ground with the whole class and the teacher and we were in the middle of maths. I could start to feel the ground kind of swaying and then I looked around to see who was jumping or moving to make the room shake but there was no one there so then I looked back at the teacher and then the whole room shook like the whole classroom was on a bridge and the bridge moved. So then I went under the table and everyone else was still on the mat so that meant I was the only one that went  under a table.After that had happened the bell rung but the office ladies did a bit of a whoopsy!because they have to ring the bell and when the bell stops ringing they say “ok  its safe now you  can go outside  but they didn't do that so we just went outside. So then it was all over!

My Camp Reflection

Reflection for Camp


My goal for camp was to learn lots of things and have cool experiences.  As well as being able to complete the challenges & most of all !!!!!!HAVE FUN!!!!!!.


I achieved this because I worked hard and complete all of the challenges
and I had fun the whole time.


Something I was pleased with was being able to have such a great experience  and doing everything well in everything I did because whenever I did something I was always doing my best and being really proud of myself and getting things done.  
I really enjoyed learning because when we went to the kiwi place and saw the kiwi it was making a clicking noise with its beak. So the lady said that it makes the clicking noise because it is angry. And I didn't know that. And I also learnt lots lots lots more. That was a really interesting fact about the Kiwi.
Something I found hard was doing all the walks because on every walk my legs hurt and that was really hard. I also found flipping from the top of the rope wall hard.
Something that made me think was if I should do the rope challenge or not but I did in the end. But that was a hard decision because I was really cold and Miss H said if you are cold go back to camp but it wasn't cold in the caves it was really warm.
· My top 5 favourite things about camp were:


Favourite Things.
Reason Why
1. Caving.
Because I have never been in a cave before and I saw glow worms and wetas for the first time and it was !!!AWESOME!!! FUN
2. Seeing the waterfalls.
Seeing the waterfalls is so so cool because when the water comes down it sounds so cool and it just looks so powerful.
3. Amazing Race
I enjoyed the amazing race because it was really fun when we were working as a team to win. But overall we came 2nd which is still good.
4. Confidence course
I loved the confidence course because it was really easy the whole way round the course and I really had fun.
5. Night Detectives
I enjoyed the night detectives because our group the TIGERS worked as a team and we WON!!! the riddle comp. I liked it also because Crighton scared me in the dark and that was cool. IT WAS THE BEST!!!!!!

                     Caving
We are all now heading to the rope cave. As we walk thru the smelly old wet cave I start to smell the damp smell of the cave including the insects that are in it like wetas and glow worms on the roof of the cave.

I go down the rope scared as anything & having Ms Hill directing me down. “oh” I feel a rock so I stand on it and I look down and its the bottom of the whole. “Yahh” its the bottom of the whole so we keep moving. And as I look up to see a weta my foot gets cold instantly and so I look down to see why “eww” my foot is in the wet soggy mud and it starts to sink down. I try to pull it up but no luck yet so I try harder and it comes out all covered in gooey mud. “Oh”!!!!! we have reached the end of the Smelly cave and now we have to  go back to camp :-(. “Woah” it’s pitch black now  and we can't see anything  out here but luckily we have  torches so  now we  can see:-). Are we going the right way I wonder because we all can't see the vans yet. “Woah look at the vans I say to Richard behind me the lights on the vans are glowing in the dark and it looks like a monster shape. We start to hop into our vans in the pitch black cold night we finally start to drive off heading back to camp. We get to camp before you know it and all go have toasty warm  showers. After our showers we have free play until  tea is ready. After tea we go to bed.
