Once I got to the earth-boards I immediately grabbed on to the nearest and coolest one. Then the adult who was in charge of it said “hop on your earth-boards get set go!’’ It was nerve-racking when he said go because it looked painful, what if I fell off. I thought I would, and I did, it hurt. I had lots of grass stains on my jeans.
Soon enough they were ready to go “are you ready’’ said the adult ‘’yes’’ we all said except me. But just then Cameron pushed me straight down the rocks. I felt like my heart was beating 100 kilometers an hour! I felt like a yellow and black cheater in a huge paddock. After a few more runs I felt good. Then we went to the next thing. I wondered what it was.
Then I felt a bit better when we got to the bmx bikes. Then I said hello to the adult, he came and gave me a race across the whole field, it was really tough. But he completely won by miles because he has more muscles than me.
Then we went to damper. My dad was there and he was dirty and had dough all over his clothes. First we got water and flour then we mixed it all up until it was all gooey, sticky and squishy. After that we put the dough on a stick and put it in the hot scorching fire. But it slipped in the fire then we had to get another one. I had to wait a long time for it to get crunchy and crispy. Then it suddenly caught on fire, I panicked and it got burned. I ate some and it was really yummy, it was the yummiest thing that I had ever tasted.
The next thing I did was go to the parachute. I was number 3 and when my number was called I had to run as fast as I possibly could around the parachute once. But I slipped around the corner because I had socks on then you had to get the ball. The parachute was the bright colours of the rainbow.
Soon we went to a game when you pass platforms to each other as fast as we could then you step on it. There was 7 things that were the platforms. In the end I wondered if it was fast or slow.
By the time I was back I was really tired. I fell asleep before it was dark and dad put water on me to wake me up. The water was out of my drink bottle.

Bunkroom number four waited very patiently for the instructions for the relays. I was feeling happy because I love doing relays.
Miss Brandon said the instructions for the relays clearly and loudly. I was listening for what I was doing.
I was slow because I only have a small mouth. Everybody else was ahead of me. Miss Brandon told me just to go back when I was only half way through the weet-bix. I’m not use to dry weetbix because I have toast for breakfast. The weetbix was only about as big as my hand. It was tuff for me. When I was running back my teammates cheered loudly for me.
Next Gabby had to put honey on her nose with an iceblock stick. After that she had to put a cotton ball on the patch where the honey was. I was cheering for Gabby. After she had put on the cotton ball she had to blow it off.
Then Piper had to break up chocolate into little pieces and eat it all up. After that Lenique had to drink fizzy drink and then burp. After that Kiana had to get a chocolate fish our of the ice-cream container. She had to get it out of the blue and white icecream container. The container didn’t come with a lid. But I had to do the chocolate fish out of the container because Kiana didn’t want to. When I was eating the soft yummy chocolate fish it was tiring. Again my teammates were cheering loudly for me. All my teammates were thinking we might win, but we did not. But in the end it was easy. I was running back hard out back to the others. After I put the chocolate fish in my mouth was squishy and gooey.
I was very tired after the relays because all that eating made my mouth very sore. Finally it was the end of the relays. My teeth were so sore that I couldn’t eat anything else.

Firstly we went to the bmx bikes. It was awesome. Some of them could not ride the bikes so Shane and my mum Nicky were helping them out. Shane and Nicky were being so helpful and people were saying this is hard like pushing a hippo!
Then we went to tramps. It was a lot of fun. At the trampolines people thought it would be bouncy but it was as slow as a snail. I was doing rolly pollies and when I was doing them I was curled up like a armadillo when it is in the shape of a bouncy ball.
Then it was parachute time. We had to bounce the regular tennis ball on top of the parachute and not let it fall off. The parachute was as colourful as a long glowing rainbow.
Suddenly I jumped on the nearest earthboard and went down the little hill. When I was going down there was a sudden bump, “Whoa.” I said. The ride was wicked. I could not wait until it was my turn again. I felt so happy because I was having so much fun on the earthboards.
After that it was co-operative games. You had to get the quickest time. My team won. The prize was a little banana chocolate bar. It was yummy. At the co-operative games we had to use everyday items and get across from one pole to the other.
Finally we went to damper. At damper we had to cook some bread and when we cooked it we sliced open it and put some butter on it.

Last week room 18 and 19 went to Highland home for a camp. Firstly I listened to what Miss Brandon who was talking. Then we went with the parent that was taking us there. We were only aloud twenty minutes on the BMX bikes. I rode on the BMX bikes and had heaps of fun.
After that I had to go to the next rotations which was the earthboards. I didn’t know what it was when I first saw it. The earthboards look like a skateboard and it had four wheels. After that I went on it with my friend Phoenix. I felt very happy because I liked doing it.
Next I had to go to the next rotation and it was the trampolines. I had to wait for one minute to go on the tramp. I did some forward flips on the tramp.
The last one was the damper. At the damper I make some bread and toasted it. In the bread was flour and water, then we mixed it all around in the container. Then we toasted it on the fire. After that I felt happy because it tasted so good. It was a brown and white colour.
After all those activities I felt very tired because those activities. I felt like I wanted to go to sleep. The relays were lots of fun.

As I lined up for the amazing relays. I realised I was facing Olivia B. We both had to eat dry weet-bix. I felt like I was never going to win. Olivia B was quiet slow but Phoenix was really fast.
Firstly Miss Brandon said the instructions. Then she shouted out go! Everybody went running, me, Olivia B and Phoenix were all racing each other. The first thing we did was eat dry weet-bix, it was extreme. It was yucky and discussing. It was nerve racking, but in the end I ate it, it was crunchy and dry. I was really nervous because I thought our team was going to loose.
Then we had to run and put runny honey on our nose and stick a cotton-ball on our nose and blow it off. She said it was really disgusting and yuck.
After that we had to drink Lemonade and then burp. Hollie did not burp until 2 minutes. It was white and kind of yellow. I bet it was yummy!
Sammy had to eat a block of chocolate it was so yummy. I think it was dark milk chocolate. I was lucky I did not have to do it because I don’t like dark chocolate.
Shayla had to eat a chocolate fish without using her hands, she used her mouth, yuck! I think it was a marshmallow fish. “It was yum” Shayla said. The chocolate fish was in a white and blue container with water, it must have been soggy.
Then Makayla and Hannah had to dress up in toilet paper, but we didn’t win. Snoopy came first. Oh well we had an awesome time anyway! The toilet paper looked funny, nearly everything came off after all our hard work.
