Loving Camp Life (Day 1)

 Well, what a day we have had. Excitedly we all arrived at school with our gear ready for a great three days.

The bus ride was great and Ms Lange and Mrs Taylor were happy that no-one was sick on the journey. 

The bus dropped us off at Governors Bay and we got to eat our morning tea and run round a little. Then the fabulous instructors from Living Springs met us and we started our walk. We had to walk up a hill to get to camp. Some of us complained but we all made it! We were happy to see the top. What a super cool view from our camp!

After we collected our luggage, we went off to find our rooms. Then it was straight onto orienteering. Joseph explained how we could read a map to go and locate different points. We had to work as a team. No man or woman was left behind! Two teams got six points correct. We were hungry again now so lucky for us it was afternoon tea time. After eating some delicious chocolate cake and watermelon, pineapple, apple and oranges,  it was our recreation time. Recreation means we could try ziplining, monorail, mini golf, rope swing, trampolines and gaga dodgeball. So much fun!

After a delicious dinner we got to go swimming in the pool. We loved the fact that the pool was inside and heated! We thought that was such a treat. We tried to convince Mr Robertson to upgrade our school pool.

To finish the day we completed our camp diaries with what we have done, what we found challenging and what we are looking forward to tomorrow. What a great first day of camp we have all had. We are all looking forward to our next adventure tomorrow.  

Night all.
