Camp 2012

Camp at Waipara.

On Tuesday the 13^th of March 2012 St Anne’s year 7 and 8’s went to Waipara Boys Brigade Camp.

First we explored the camp and unpacked next we had some free time and tried out all the activities.

After lunch we completed an orienteering course down on the lower field it was fun.

After dinner we played ‘Who wants to be a millionaire’ and spotlight and some of us watched Gnomeo and Juliet.

 Day two we started with a run and then after breakfast we went to Ruth and Keith’s farm and did a long walk and had lots of life lessons from Mr C.

In the afternoon we went on the water slide it was great.

At night we did Wearable arts and spotlight again.

 Thursday was another run and then we broke into three groups and did air-rifles, flying fox and confidence course. At night it was party time and games.

Friday was a big clean and home.

Thanks to all that helped and made it the best campJ
