Brochure

 LI: To a collaborative brochure that tells others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp.

Over the last week everyone challenged themselves during the sessions at archery, high ropes, kayaking, raft building, camp cooking, pancake race and team building/orienteering. Our group collaborated to create a brochure that shows others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp.

I enjoyed this activity because we get to advertise about the camp site we went to.

This week, everyone in LS2 has been given a set of different challenges based on our camp. For this activity we used our smart searching skills to find information about the North Island Kokako bird. 

I enjoyed this activity becasue I got to learn new thing about the Kokako Bird.

Camp Collage

 LI: To create a collage of your camp highlights

This week LS2 have been celebrating our camp. I created this collage to show my time at camp and the activities I enjoyed. To make my collage effective I thought about the size of the images, the angle of the images and I tried hard not to leave any gaps between the photos.

I enjoyed this activity because I could my memories from camp safe and I found it fun because I got to laugh at some of the photos that were took of me.

5 Minutes Of Camp

LI: To recount a 5 minute snapshot of one experience you had at camp

                                                                                                                                                                           

Fear I Overcame

“You got this!” says the voices coming from the outside, I took a big pause followed by a deep breath as  the harness went the three Os on harness turned into Cs, straight after the helmet went on, it made me feel a lot safer. But head started spinning, like a rollercoaster. The fear rose as I took a step on the ladder. Holding the ladder, someone I trusted, I looked forward, just kept taking steps on each rail.

As time goes faster my heart starts racing out of my chest, a pool starts to form in my eyes. The staples got me, I started pulling myself up, one by one I go. Everyone’s shouting “you got this.” I whispered to myself “yes!” as I reached the top. My eyes turned into a dessert. I heard someone say “now get on the beam.” I felt like I had a new friend, while I was hugging the pole.

I took a step on the beam, my legs started to tremble as my feet took steps, my fears started to shrink. My frown turned into a smile. While I'm walking like I'm on a plane, I'm saying “love this thing!”

While I was walking across I hit a pole. I hugged it and said “I love you, my hero!” And when I thought I was done the instructor said “run to the middle.” I felt clueless, but I did it anyway. I stood in the spot and said something embarrassing, “Hi world, I love you!”

The sun goes down, as it gets darker. I let one foot off and then the other. Right that second I thought I was flying, I was relieved I made it to the ground safely.  Suddenly the words out of my mouth said “I want to do it again.”

                                                                                                                                                                           

We created a recount givings a 5 minute recount what happend in camp. I chose to make a recount about what happened on the high beam or high rope. My recount explained what happend during the time and the emotions.

I found this activity fun because I got to express myself and enjoy what I did.
