Camping is a wonderful experience for everyone. Welcome to the tour of our Year 7 Camp.

Getting settled was the hard part because of the brand-new environment and the people. First off when we arrived at the camping spot, reality kicked in and we realised that the people we would be spending the next four nights with, would be people most of us did not know. The activities were surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, caving, bike riding, raft building, and a few hours at Next Level Monkey Business. Surfing was very fun or painful depending on what type of experience you had but the ones who were good at it were disappointed they only got to surf on the whitewash.

The highlight of the kayaking was making a giant snake chain. Stand-up paddle boarding was a new experience for some of us and it was exciting as we got to play games and have fun. Although it was a shallow beach, many of us liked it like that. Caving was a relief because it was one of the only activities out of the sun. We got to explore each inch of the cave and learnt about all the caves.

Bike riding was about going out into the world to explore and have a fun time with friends.

Raft building encouraged teamwork and problem solving in order to get a bag of gummy worms. Finally, on the last day of camp, we went to Next Level Monkey Business and climbed the day away. After almost a week of laughing, eating (kind of), making friends, and having a wonderful disco, we were ready to head home and sleep.
