Year 3
After the campfire finished, we
went to bed. I was excited to stay
away from home at night
because it was fun. We were all
exhausted after our action-
packed day. We went to sleep
anticipating the fun we’d have
the next day. Harrison J For me, the most memorable activity
was the Zip Wire. I was first on and I
was shaking with fear. When I
jumped off the wooden platform I
went incredibly fast. When I reached
the end and re-joined my group, I
encouraged them to be brave
because it was scary. Jude L S
After a delicious breakfast we
were ready for our first activity of
the day - sensory trail. We had to
walk in the woods blindfolded,
using our other senses. I was the
leader of the line so it was my job
to tell the people in the line
behind me what was coming up
next. This was an exercise in
communication. Freya P One of the most thrilling activities
was Aeroball. It was a mix of
basketball and trampolining. I was
with Jude and our team name was
‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’.
We played a tournament against
other teams in our group to see
who could shoot the most goals in
the given time. Eloise T
I felt the trip was so worthwhile. At
times I felt terrified of the
challenges and a bit sad that I was
away from home. However, I felt
amazing for overcoming my fears
and experiencing new, exciting
things. Most of the time I laughed
with my friends and we helped each
other. I learnt that having a go at
something, even if it’s difficult and
frightening, is worth doing. I am
very proud of myself for what I have
achieved. Clemmie S
