My Camp Letter

Hi there! I hope that you are having a GREAT day!

A few weeks ago the year six's went on camp to Wainui. We had the greatest time ever! Some of the activities were raft building, kayaking, campfire and abseiling. My most favourite activity was kayaking. The reason I liked kayaking was that we were out on the water all the time and I love the water. One thing that I was scared about when I was in the kayak was that I was scared that I would tip the boat over and fall in! One of the boys in my group fell in the water and he got absolutely soaked!

Here is the letter that I wrote to the parent that helped us on camp:

Dear Fergus 

Camp was awesome! I really loved camp and I hope you did too. The most challenging activity was abseiling because my foot got stuck at the top, but I eventually got my foot out. When I abseiled down off the tree it felt like I was floating in the air but I almost fell into the river!

What was your favourite part of the camp? Mine was kayaking. It was my favourite because we were allowed to go really fast and I love the feel of air and seawater in my face.

Here is my highlight of camp that I have written about..

Kayaking:

I heard...

Water sloshing as I rowed after the instructor

I heard...

A big BANG! As someone bumped into my kayak

I saw...

Seaweed floating past me like a dead plant

I Felt...

Bitterly cold water settling under me as Lucas dived into my kayak

I Felt...

Like a professional kayaker rowing to the finish line

I Wondered...

If I would fall into the icy water

I Wondered...

How far we were from the shore


I wonder what your favourite activity was? Mine was definitely kayaking!

Thank you so much for coming on camp with us! You are very kind to take the time to come and join us. I really enjoyed you helping us in search and rescue. That took a lot of effort to find the hiders.

Thank you also for the extraordinarily yummy food you prepared on camp. It was just devine! I especially loved the pasta and the salad, mainly because I LOVE salad! Thank you for helping me with abseiling and cheering me on.

Your friend,

Kaylin😋
