Kayaking at Camp !!!

Last week on Wednesday we started the year 5 and 6 camp. There were many of
activities but my favourite was kayaking. It was really fun and everyone in my team enjoyed it, my team was called caretakers and I was one of the leaders.

When it was time for our final activity we had to walk down to the reserve to get ready for kayaking. As soon as we arrived we learnt how to be safe in the kayak, we also learnt how to get in and out of it to. It was funny because Isara and Rocky had to show us how to get in but instead of getting i  n they fell in.

Then Mr Burt told us to get a life jacket on and get into the water with the kayak. It was hard putting on the life jacket but Isara helped me. When I got in I paddle to the left because there were boundaries on the right.

It was awesome everyone enjoyed it, some of us fell out and into the water. We had races and splashed each other we even got to swim after we had finished. When we were racing I won I was racing Henry I enjoy every single bit of it.Then I was time to go back to the Marque to get ready for dinner I was really tired after that.

Year 5/6 Camp

Yesterday was the first day of camp and my team and I went to cook some scrumptious Corn fritters with Miss Tito. It was really fun cooking with her, first she divided us into three groups of four then we started to make the batch. She had prepared everything. 

Soon later we had finish the batch and then we  started cooking. It was really funny cooking because every time you'd flip them you would have to jump back because the oil would burn you. after that we had eaten them and the we started to roast some marshmallows and make smores.

Writing about Antarctica

In Antarctica there are a lots of icebergs icy deserts animals and many more interesting things you might want to know about Antarctica. Like it has the largest desert in the world. Also if you were to swim all the way down Antarctic water it would get warmer and warmer. Also There are extremely strong big and small animals that live in Antarctica like penguins seals and orca which are killer whales.all of the penguins have feathers and peaks just like birds but they can't fly. killer whales like to eat almost anything they see but what they really love to eat is squid penguins and dolphins.
