My camp experienced!

Bonjour fellow bloggers,

I am here with you to share my experience last week. Last week the Yr 5's and 6's went on a school trip to Mt Ruapehu. As you can see at the bottom I have a slideshow about what we did on camp and saw while we were there. At Mt Ruapehu there was snow I thought it would feel soft but instead it felt like ice. It was my first time touching snow and actually trying out new things. By the way we had choices on what to do for the day at the snow. The options were Skiing or Snowboarding. On the forms that the teachers gave us it said that Skiing is basically easier than Snowboarding. My option was Skiing (because it was easier) and most people chose Skiing than Snowboarding. I took photo's from my red camera that I brang along of our bus trip but not of the snow because I needed to change my batteries but I didn't take extra batteries, my camera doesn't need a charger it need's batteries to charge it up.  It took us lot's of hours (8 or 9 hours) to get to the hotel that we were staying in because we had lot's of stops and walks to refresh our minds before going to our next stop. 

   Feel free to read through my slideshow! 

We had a great time on the fiirst day but we didn't get to Ski or Snowboard because we got to the hotel at 7 or 8pm. Before we arrived at the hotel in the afternoon we went to Hamilton Gardens to have a little Competition and challenge between 7 coloured teams. We all stopped for a morning tea break before heading inside Hamilton Gardens. Ms Sands walked the people that needed to go toilet to the toilet. Then we were on a roll and started to wait for the people near a water fountain. Here is a photo of it. Mr Riceman & Ms Sands handed us 2 pieces of paper to each team, and with the pieces of paper were pencil's. What we had to do was to find clues of the gardens that are on the piece of paper and name what the clue is in which garden. It was annoying and tiring because we pasted some of the clues and we had to go all the way around to find it again.

                            Here are lot's of AWESOME! photo's that you guys can have look at.

This is our Orange group taking a photo before we race to find the clues of the gardens.

I enjoyed camp a lot. I learnt to stop with Ski's you either do a pie shape by turning you foot facing the other foot so it looks like a triangle, or you can turn to the side and facing left or right. I crashed ontop of people while Skiing down the mountain because I kept on going fast. We had Skiing and Snowboarding lessons because we were only beginners and started for one day. The place that we were Skiing was called Happy valley ( Should actually be called crowded valley because there was so much people). Some people were skiing up higher which was called Rock mountain some of my friends went but I wasn't allowed to because I had my lesson on. My friend said that there was a waterfall which was little bit big. There were so much people because there were more then 10 schools, families and people that are having a vacation. If you are also going to camp please tell me when you post a comment below and I will comment back. 

 Feel free to ask me questions. If you want to see more of my work please keep visiting more often and see more FANTASTIC! work.

           SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR!
