The moment my foot sank into the mud, the goo was cold and squelchy. It was deep and muddy and super fun. I could see as  The sun glistens on the dirty water and my legs were sticky and glazed with mud. I was out of breath by the time my foot landed on the finish line.

Camp Reflection

From the 18th to the 19th of October 2017 Kahikatea team were on camp at the Rotorua Lakes Ranch. On Wednesday which was the day we arrived was packed full with exciting things that we did. There were different groups from group 1 to 8. I was in group 8. First my group did kayaking, I was a bit nervous getting inside the kayak because it wobbled, but after a little while of paddling around the lake it was really fun. next we did rock climbing then the scavenger hunt and then raft building. we managed to fit our whole group of 10 people on our raft. Those were our activities for that day. For dinner we had lasagna and for dessert we had apple crumble and ice cream. On the Wednesday we had a talent show and lots of people had great performances. The next day was Thursday and our first activity was slug gun shooting then orienteering and then the mud run. we sloshed through water and mud. After that our group went in the hot pools. Our last activity was horse riding. I was very nervous getting on the horse but  after a while as we were walking along the track on the horses it was really fun and it was my favorite activity. For dinner we had macaroni and cheese and for dessert we had jelly and ice cream.  Friday was the last day and on the way back to school we all went to the hot springs. It was a super fun camp!


This was my group on the raft we built and it was floating on the water!
