School Camp!

Last Week the Kaupeka hub went to the YMCA Camp in Wainui, we had lots of fun doing all the activities like high ropes, kayaking, raft building and A LOT more. 

One of my favourites was orienteering, which was where you had to go around the camp and find numbers which were shown on the map they had given us. At each number there was a symbol we had to copy down on a piece of paper and find every symbol and bring it back to the teachers, me and my partner were the first ones to finish this. 

Something I learnt during coasteering was how to tell the difference between a male and female crab, the female crab has more of a leaf shaped circle with lines through it on their underbelly, on the other hand the male has more of a bell shape instead of a leaf.  

Something I am grateful for from camp is the food we were given for morning tea lunch dinner and breakfast, there was never a time where I felt hungry during camp, we were well fed by the teachers and parent helps with yummy meals.

Something that I found challenging was being very far away from home and my parents, and waking up 6:30 in the morning to get ready.

Have you been to YMCA Camp? what did you find challenging?
