Year 6 Camp 2019
Year 6 Berry Camp was all about cooperating with teachers and classmates. We did lots of activities which were challenging and all about communication.
The activities we did were the scavenger hunt, challenging ropes, archery, the dark maze, canoeing and a cookout. Our favourite activity was canoeing. Canoeing requires communication and cooperation.
The canoes need three people to work together as a team to navigate the river. Our instructor set up meeting points which we had to stop at and raft up. Rafting up is when everyone in each canoe grabs hold of one another’s canoe, this creates a raft.
We paddled upstream and met at all the meeting points that we were told to stop at. At the last meeting point we turned around and had a race back to the pier. We hopped out and helped pack up the canoes. Once we packed them all away we were all aloud to jump into the river.
(The water was FREEZING)
Year 6 camp was an extraordinary experience and we will always remember it.
