Wonderful water

Walt:I was learning about what is a Macro invertebrate identify things and what it will look like if the water is clean or it is polluted. If the water is polluted we would not have water to drink and we may die because there will be a lot of bacteria in the water.

When they all got on to land we started to sing a greeting song to greet them coming in. After we sang they started to sing back to as and thank as for greeting them and then we sang again to them.


After this we all stopped and finished with a song. Then the little kids went down and shook their hands. We got to ask them questions and they told us what's been happening in their trip and going around the world. And then we got to say a goodbye to them and go back to school and go in the hall.

When the sun was rising the students of the yr 5 and 6 had camp for the start of the year. There was 12 student that got picked to be a leader for each team half boys and half girls and I got pink to be a leader and my was the Real Dealz. And then they told as what crew we had and had to draw out what song we are going to get for the dance performance.

I was very looking forward to kayaking and cooking because they are my favorite activities because I like being create and helpful when it comes to cooking some
times. Kayaking is my best activity of all times of camp because when my group
got there they took off there clothes ‘ put on the life jackets and got into the
kayak.


When school finished all the camp groups got to play for 2 hours play lots of kind
games my best one was soccer because lots of people join and some teachers
played. There was Teeball’ Ripper tag’ soccer and got to play on the adventure
playground for four ground and two grounds go to the pools. When we got to
pools we had lots of time to have fun in the pool and do cool things with your
friend and others.

When it come to the last night we had to do a dance performance that we have been
training on and learn some chants to go with the dance. Each team had to perform
a dance and some chants with the dance to see what team will win the dance and
the whole camp. When it come to the judges the hosted squad were the winner and
my team came 2nd and true crew came 3nd.


The last day we went to manage pools for the last day of camp because it happens each year for the year five and six. First we had to line up and have a little bit of
food and then everybody jumped into the pools and went on lots of things that were
cool everybody was going on the slide. When they all opened up the bombing pool was packed with lots of people and didn’t did to have the many turn.
