Room 18,19, 20 had such a great time on camp last week. We headed up on Monday morning and began with a river walk. This was followed by some team building games, orientation and a scavenger hunt around camp. Tuesday we began our rotations. The rotations involved Flying Kiwi, Giant Swing, Raft building, Kayaking, Water Slide, Tree Climbing, Confidence Course and Water Hole swimming. After a full day of rotations we had a quiz night followed by the blind trail in the dark through the trees.
Wednesday morning we finished our activity rotations, tidied up and headed back to school.
It was such a great experience at camp, trying new things and building new friendships.
The teachers were so impressed with the way we held ourselves and showed our school values. Thank you to all the parents who supported our camp and enabled it to happen.
Check out some of the pictures below.
The mighty Tōtara tree stands tall and proud. It protects those smaller than itself. In ancient times it was used to build waka that carried hundreds of warriors and build whare to protect people from the earths elements. As the team gifted with the name tōtara, we take on much of it’s meaning. We protect those who are younger than us and we support others by encouraging them, and being active role models in our kura. We are the leaders of KNS.
