Speckles' Trip

Last night Speckles went on a trip to Mrs Crawford's house. She had to go and get her nails clipped.
Speckles had so much fun running around the house and Mr Crawford enjoyed his cuddles.

Mrs Crawford has a cat called Jet and she didn't want to be anywhere near Speckles. She just ran away and was scared of her.

EOTC week by Shridhanjily

Last week it was E.O.T.C week. It was lots of fun.
When we were doing frisbees I thought that I stunk at doing the frisbees. When I started doing the frisbee activity I improved and am now a lot better.
Then after 15 minutes, we moved onto the Soccer Olympic. It was so much fun because the other team was too slow and so we shouted for them to hurry up.

Camp by Ziyaad

Something I liked about camp was the Rafts because it taught me to use teamwork and confidence, which helped build up my confidence. I also like the Water Slide because I was like a super fast Cheetah on the water.
Wow the chef was a great cook.
The things I didn't like was the Balance Island and Kayaking. In both of those activities I was like a monkey falling in the water.
Finaly lets get to my changes. These would be using my manners all the time. I learnt that you should listen to all instructions when doing different activities. This is to keep you safe.
I really enjoyed camp.

Camp by Sonali

Hi everyone, here are all the things I liked about camp. First of all I loved the Trolleys. It was fast and fun. It was my first time trying it so it was a bit scary but then it was fun.
My second favourite activity was the Flying Fox. We had to travel across the pond on the Flying Fox and lean back so that we didn't hit the rope onto our face.
My third favourite was Kayaking because I learnt how to push through the water with my paddle and turn left and right, move forward and backwards and control the Kayak.
I really enjoyed my time at camp.

Camp by Ayush

Last week I went to camp for the first time and it was cool. I really liked the Trolleys and the Archery. I only kind of liked the Balance Island. the scary part of camp was that I had to go to the toilets in the middle of the night all by myself. Not cool man!
I thought that Technology challenge would be Technology and more about computers and things but it wasn't. It was all about making things.
The funny part about camp was the first night and I think it was in the middle of the night and all I could hear was snoring coming from others.
I really enjoyed spending time with my friends and being able to do fun things with them.

Camp by Sam

My favourite thing at camp was Trolleys because I liked crashing and it was lots of fun. I also liked Archery because I hit the bullseye. I wouldn't change anything at Chosen Valley because it's so fun. Another thing I liked was the food because it was very yummy.
Camp was so much fun.

Camp by Stephen

I liked all the activities at camp but I like Kayaking and Archery the most because on the kayaks I got to rest and on the Archery course I got to shoot stuff.
The activity I disliked the most was Trolleys and Water Confidence Course because on the Water Confidence Course I got rope burns and lots of them. On the Trolleys I crashed 3 times and the 3rd time I flipped off the trolley, it hurt a lot.
To be honest the only thing I would change would be the size of the cabin and the mattress on the beds. The mattress was really squeaky and very unconfortable to sleep on.
I really enjoyed camp.

Camp by Aria

For our year 6 camp we had to do 11 activities. We all had to be in cabin groups and we needed cabin numbers. We had a parent in our cabin with us. My favourite activity was the Kayaks because I learnt how to paddle and we had a fun challenge. When our activities were finished we had a cold drink, some fruit and two biscuits. Some times we got to have free time on the playground, field and in our cabins. When we went back to school we went into the VW room and waited for our parents to come and pick us up. We all had a tiring day.
Camp was heaps of fun.

Camp by Tyreece

At camp I shared and slept in a cabin with Andrew, Jason, Caylis, Dontae and Stephen. It was lots of fun. We all liked the same activities. The Water Slide was our favourite because we could swim on a hot day. The one I didn't really like was Archery because it took forever for my turn to come.
Camp was lots of fun.

EOTC Week by Seemal

On Monday 27th of February the year 6's went to camp and some people didn't go and I was one of them. I was in D5 with Miss Nola for the week. On Friday 2nd of March we had a 'Have A Go Day' with the year 5's. We did activities like touch rugby, ripper rugby, basketball and number rugby. Then we had morning tea and after the bell we went and finished doing the activities we missed. When we finished all the activities we went back to the class and watched a movie for the rest of the afternoon.

Camp by Kara

At camp I enjoyed doing all the activities, they were fun. The activity I enjoyed most of all was the Water Slide because I pretended to drown then Mr Tavita jumped in to save me. Everyone laughed and cheered that he jumped into the water and made a big splash!

The activity I didn't like was the Flying Fox because you get big, big, BIG WEDGIES!
But the activities were all fun. The chefs were good cooks and the food was really yummy.

Camp was heaps of fun.

EOTC week by Alvin

Last week at school it was kind of cool but when I got home my mum and dad had gone to Fiji. On Friday I was sick and missed out on the Have A Go Day which was sad.

Camp by Tiana

My camp week was one of the best weeks of my life. My favourite activity was the Water Slide because I have never been on one before. My activity that I did not like was the Technology Challenge because my hat kept falling apart and it was a pain to keep it together. I did the rafts, water slide, kayaks and archery. I think Chosen Valley is a good place to try new things.

Camp By Zian

My highlight for camp was the Water Slide. I liked the Water Slide because you feel like you are getting slapped in the face when you hit the water.
My low light for camp was leaving camp after the lovely week. I enjoyed our last lunch at camp which was pizza. I am going to miss Chosen Valley!
The changes I would make at camp is that I would like to have more snack times and also I would like to have more time in my cabin with my friends.
Camp was lots of fun.

Camp by Jason

At camp we did lots of activities like Kayaks, Balance Island, Water Slide, Flying Fox, Rafts, Water Confidence Course and Trolleys. I liked the Balance Island because when we did the race I sort of couldn't balance on it properly. Andrew fell off his Kayak which was pretty funny. My favourite activity was the Water Slide because when you slide down it goes kind of fast. When we did the Water Slide it was a hot day which was nice to be in the cold water. When I was waiting for another turn, it was cold, so I wrapped myself with my towel to keep me warm.
Camp was a lot of fun.
