Recount: Camp

Task description; Today on 28th of march we had to write a recount about camp. Of what we did.   Come look at my writing task under my description

Last week on the 19th of march team 4 had year 5 and 6 camp. We had to come with our day bags ready with mufti. We had it on the field. We had it because we had it every year.   We went under the Marquee to meet there with the rest of the campers that paid for year 5 and 6 camp. They told everyone their groups and we quickly lined up on the side. Our camp leader was Joelle, and Ezekiel. Our teacher for year 5 and 6 camp was Mrs. Parrant. After the marquee  We got sent to our activities. The first thing we had first was Slip N slide On the grass with a plastic mat

 

We went inside the bathroom to change. We went to pack our things away where room 18 is. We lined up. The teachers were getting the plastic ready so we could slide. I helped by giving the soap to Mr Toa. Mrs. Parent was getting the water ready with the hose. She poured the water on the plastic mat with soap. Mrs Toa said to line up in 3 lines so 3 people can go and make it easier. The next game we had was called killer zone. We had to compete against each other. The challenge was girls vs boys. There was a cone in the middle and whoever reaches the middle first wins. We had to place blocks on the floor because the floor was shark infested water. If u step inside it u are gonna lose a limb. For example if you fall off the block like someone pushed you are gonna lose a limb.

We checked the time and the time was 7:45 Which means movie night! We walked into room 6 to watch a movie on the big mat. We had a big screen to watch Moana 2. We sat on the mat and relaxed on the mat. After the movie was finished We stood up and stretched our arms and legs. We lined up under. We left our tents to go to sleep. 

 

Day2 -> it was the morning when we woke up. Me and Carlos were inside the same tent. Last night we had a plan to stay up and make sure no one caught us eating midnight snacks. But Carlos said we should sleep because he was tired. So I agreed with him. In the morning we opened our tents and saw everyone going to the hall. To go exercise which was jump jam. After jump jam we went under the marquee to go eat breakfast. We lined up because each group had to get breakfast. We were last because we were at the end. After we went up to get our breakfast we had to sit back down in our lines and eat. Our food was corn flakes with milk in a brown looking bowl. With a wooden spoon. After we were finished we had to eat our own morning tea that we brought from our house/ or shop. After morning tea we were allowed to play under the shade. We were playing volleyball. After morning tea we had to play our first activities. Our first one was hall games with our bouncy balls or ping pong. Then our second one was biking. We went to the back field where all the bikes were. Mr Toa asked us if we wanted to use a scooter or bikes. My friend chose a bike because it’s faster. We went near the park to ride there. We went through the pt england beach and then back. Our 3rd activity was kayaking. We went to the pt england beach to go kayaking there. We went on the sand while we walked down. We sat down on the sand to learn some instructions on how to be safe while you’re on a kayak. We had to put on some life jackets in case we fell off our kayak. We got to choose if we wanted to go solo or go with multiple people like 2. We got told to go to the red pole very far away from the sea. We had to go back after we touched the red pole. We had to go back far away from the red pole. After we touched the red pole we had to go back so we could finish off. When all of ruru came back we had to sit on the grass with our towels under us. So we can warm up to get dried because we were wet from falling off the kayak. Then we got our food out from our day bags because we were hungry. After that we walked back to the school grounds to go to the swimming pools next. We brought our day bags because we had shampoo and conditioner. After we walked to the GI pools we had to go shower first because it says on the sign. Then we showered and lined up next to the cold pool. After everyone went inside the cold pool I was the only one left. I was so scared that I did not even wanna go in. I took a step inside it and it was warm. So I decided to put my whole body inside and I got even warmer! We were playing inside the pool and me and Khayana, Anastasia, and Joelle were playing hold the breath contest. We were playing and Joeele and Anastasia decided to cheat by poking their heads out. I caught them in 4k cause i was looking under water. As soon as I poked my head out Anastasia and joelle put their head back under water. As soon as they came back up I told them that they were cheating and they said that they weren’t even though they were. They finally admitted that they cheated. After a few hours or minutes we got out of the pool and showers to get warmed up. We went to grab our day bags to get changed inside the bathrooms in the swimming GI pools. After we walked inside the bathroom we had to shower with our shampoo we got. I was done and walked out of the shower. I went to change my clothes and I forgot to bring my plastic bag to put my swimming togs inside. I just shoved it in my bag and got changed. I walked back to where everyone was. We walked back to the school grounds to eat because we were hungry after the pools. We went under the marquee to eat. Our food was nachos. Yay! This dinner was so yummy that I even finished one plate of it. Then Mr Burt told us a story until it was night. We walked back to our tents like what miss parents said. Me and my friend Carlos zipped up our tents to get sleeping. We got our PJS ready so we can feel comfortable at night. We got to sleep and fell asleep.

 

Day 3 -> good morning diary! I woke up with my friend Carlos to hear a siren that woke us up at 6:59Am. We woke up to go to the hall so we could get warmed up. We did some jump jams. We went under the marquee to eat our breakfast. It was the same food from yesterday. It was corn flakes again. But i was happy to have it cause it was also yum like nacho. Miss parrant said if u wanted to go for some seconds. We had morning tea but i was not feeling hungry so i decided to not eat. I went under the shade so I could play some volleyball because it was fun for me. Miss Parrant said that we were about to go to the panmure lagoon pool. I was so! Excited to go because it had a slide. We got changed into our swimming togs so we can go to the panmure lagoon pools to have a refreshing swim. After we reached the panmure lagoon pools in a bus we were told to sit on the grass for some few instructions to learn while you’re inside the pool. After we were done we got sent off one by one to go on the slide or go play. Me and my friends Khayan, Joelle,and Anastasia. We were playing tag at the cold pool outside. We were having fun and then decided to go on the slide. It was so high. We were in a line probably not that long. It was my turn. I sat on the slide. There was a green and red looking traffic stop. When it turns green it means I go. If it’s red, that means I have to wait for the next person to finish. The light turned green. As soon as I went in I shouted “I WILL SEE U IN “ YEARS!” Everyone waiting in the line was laughing. When I was on the slide it was so black that I even started to scream. The slide kept on flipping me around and making me face the wrong way. I landed back first even though I had to land feets first. A teacher in room 8 called MrHuse. MrHuse decided to try out the slide. As soon as he went down the slide he said “bye bye” everyone was cracking out laughing like what happened to what i did when i went down the slide again then we had to go back so we can get dropped off back home again. We came back and quickly got changed into our normal clothes. We packed everything that we brought to camp inside our suitcase or our day bags. After we were done we went inside the hall to watch a movie named despicable me 4. It was a long movie but we did not have enough time to watch it so our family came over to pick us up and my brother came! I was glad because I thought I had to walk back home. After my brother came I got my suitcase and my day bag so i can go back home to visit my family and my dog named coco. My brother put my suitcase in the trunk of the car and started driving to go back home. My dog was excited to see me. After my dog saw me I finally had a rest to sleep.   The end
