My favorite thing about camp was rock climbing . This was my favorite thing in camp because we got to spend an hour and an half . I like rock wall because there was easy ones and hard ones. So in the end the rock climbing made my camp the best camp.

I liked the rockwall and caving. I like crawling through the tight small spaces at the caves. At the rock wall I loved jumping off the top and falling down

My favourite part of camp was the old coach road because of the tunnel and the
Via duck bridge. We also got to eat lots of good food for once !!!!!!

2018-03-12 20:16:42 UTC

Old coach Rd because we didn’t have to climb a mountain. Pluse it was shorter

Walking over the old viaduct Bridge because it was made by people who didn’t have much machines and good tools to build it.
It was also great to eat all the lollies on the walk!!!!!

Narnia room!!!

The caving was one of the best activitie there because going underground and squeezing into tight space wasn't my normal day thing, so I think it was nice to do something different.

The little things like: Talent Show,News paper fashion show, food eating comps, Spotlight, play with those circuit toys.

I loved doing the caving. It was really funny when Miss Sullivan try to get through the tiny little holes. One part she said to me to do head first. I loved seeing the glow warms on the roof it was so cool.
I also loved doing the rock climing. The people there were really nice. I loved doing the one when it was timed and we had to go the wall as fast as we could that was really fun. Some of them were a little hard but they were still really fun to do and try. I loved the ones were we got to race each other. T

Doing the rock climbing because jumping off the auto belay was fun.

Rock climbing was fun because you got to choose what wall you did, also the caving was fun because of what they called some challenges, Like the cork screw, Winnie the pooh crack and the toaster also there was knee deep water and glow worms. I found it interesting how glow worms are actually magget's and those caves were there 30 million years ago.

All the activities were cool at camp like the eating competition, news paper cat walk, spot light, talent show. Over all camp was the best!!!!

I loved rock climbing. All of the walls were different, exiting and challenging. My favorite wall was the one the was made of see through plastic and went straight up. You could race someone who is on the other side of it.

Ruby

I liked doing the caving because going underground and looking at the glowworms was really cool, I also liked the old coach road walk especially the big bridge we had to go across.

Pippa

2018-03-12 20:21:48 UTC

Doing the Mangawhero walk because of the native fauna and flora.

I really really liked caving , I thought it would be wayyyy smaller than it was. I especially enjoyed the part when we had to lead our selfs back as a group.i also really enjoyed rock climbing because it was something different than the other camp plus it was an awesome surprise

Pippa

2018-03-12 20:24:39 UTC

Seeing the gloworms at Okuputa caves because they looked like a galaxy.

Ana

2018-03-12 20:25:31 UTC

I loved okuputa caves because I never been caving before and at the end we had to make our own why out as a group.

Rock climbing was fun to burn out all of my energy. The different rock climbing walls made it amazing.

My favourite thing about camp was probably having a shower at 2am. Because we thought it was 6am. And Suzen because he made the camp fun.

Pippa

2018-03-12 20:28:27 UTC

Doing the talent show was fun because most of the acts made you laugh in some way or another.
Another favorite was the eating show that the dad's organised.

Vinnie

2018-03-12 20:30:36 UTC

I thought the caving was the most challenging because we had to fit throw small places
And because the glow worms were so bright when we turned our torches off
We could see it was so bright

Pippa

2018-03-12 20:33:00 UTC

Another favorite was Miss Sullivans and Mrs Readers item because, it made just about everyone laugh, and people wanted them to do it again.

I Really enjoyed going caving. The glowworms were pretty cool, I thought it was funny how they died after 3 days of being a fly. Some of the tight squeezes in the caves scared me a little, but I got through all of them just fine. One of my favorite parts of the cave was finding our own way back without the instructor.

Edie

2018-03-12 20:43:34 UTC

I really liked going rock climbing, it was probably my favorite part of the whole camp. One of my favorite walls was the hexagon wall (or maybe octagon? I can’t remember). I also really liked the lightning bolt one, although it was one of the harder ones.

Camp was rally fun beacause of all the activities that we did. The best part was caving because there were lots of challenges although I did really hurt my knee.
The camp was really interesting because of all the places you could go like the narnia room, the horses and best of all daisy

I think that lake rotopunamu was fun even though it was raining and the only walk I went on it was still interesting the missletoe trees and the really flat lake

The rock wall was so so so fun! Because we got to do what we wanted to do. My favorite wall was the lighting or the ice berg!

Tiaki

Caving was my personal favourite, the reason for this is because it’s not something you do every day. There were confined spaces that you wouldn’t think you could fit through it’s just awesome. Although there was heaps more I really liked.

Charlotte Hyde

charlotte_hy — 2018-03-12 21:41:56 UTC

I really enjoyed caving because it was so fun to squeeze into the tight corners and I got to challenge myself and do things I never thought I would do before. I loved looking at and learning about the glowworms.

I loved Rock climbing because I faced a fear and I had so much fun. I loved racing my friends and seeing who won.

I loved all the walks exspecially the Old Coach Road one because we got to walk over the old viaduct and we got to learn about it.

I loved the talent show, the fashion show and spotlight because we got to hang out with friends and we just had a great time in general.

I realy liked the Caving. I thought it was realy cool how we saw an eal and glow worms. The cave had dierent names for each room. Thire where some tight places we had to get though but it was fun.

I absolutely loved caving, it was so awesome. Inside the cave was filled with Stacked up rocks, and a stream that flowed all the way to the end of the cave, and it was VERY cold. The toaster was the scariest part of all, you had to climb down a steep drop, and Machu would guide me down. You had to put your hands onto the rock, above you, then with your feet, you had to slowly make your way down, onto a rock below. After I had done the toaster, I felt very proud of myself.

Rock climbing was my personal favourite cause I really liked the walls and I got 13.31 seconds on the timed wall it and it was a really good time there

I enjoyed the caving because i loved going into the tight spaces and overcome my fear of tight spaces.And i loved about it was the toaster when you had to slide down a drop and it got me really exited bout caving and i also complete all of the challenges that we had to do

My most favourite thing that I did on camp was Rock Wall climbing by far, it was incredible because you got to climb up these creative rockwalls. I like rockclimbing cause you get to challenge yourself and fly down.

I loved everything! The camp in general was just amazing! I loved caving and being able to see the glow worms like that. The rockclimbing was exhausting but worth it. The tramps we did were some of the best I've done in a while. Even though the bus broke down
something happened on turangi Taupō road meaning we couldn't get back in time, I was kind of happy to stay away from school for the extra time and it meant we got go to the carrot park and a normal playground.

My personal favourite was the caves beacuse it was my first time doing it! I thought is was awesome.I also loved rockclimbing I thought it was a good idea that they let you do it yourself beacuse it can push your limits to not be afraid
of getting stuck up the top.My favourite thing at rockclimbing was to fly down

Skyla

One of my most memorable moments of camp was the caving because they called the challenges different names one of them was called the toaster and the cork screw. I also liked the rock climbing because it was a bit of a challenge for me since I’m scared of heights but after I made it to the top I was not scared anymore.

One of my favourite things we did on camp was go rock climbing and even though we weren’t supposed to do it, it was so much fun. I also loved caving, and it was fun to crawl through all of the small parts. I loved going on all of the tramps because of all of the beautiful scenery. Going behind the waterfall was amazing! Even though we got very wet it was refreshing because we were very hot from the walk and it keeped us cool for the rest of it. My favourite place at the camp was definitely the narnia room. And we watched narnia in the narnia room!

I loved rock climbing because I did it with a broken arm and I got right to the tipy top of the middle rock wall and it felt really amazing and I felt like I was on top of the world I loved the bit when we got down because it was nice and slow.

Harrison

Caving was definitely my favourite activity we did. It isn’t something I had done before but although I didn’t realise till we got there, I had been to the entrance before. Learning all about the glowworms was also very cool. The life of them is very strange so I found it quite interesting. The personal challenges we did in the caves were very fun and getting to climb through and over small spaces was really fun. At the end the instructor left us kids by ourselves and we had to found our own way back by following the stream and always taking lefts at the forks. It was really fun and I didn’t get scared at all

There was a lot of memes during camp but my favorite part of camp was the caving, I learnt that glow worms only made there webs above the stream and they classify as fly’s. Cave formation is completely random. I also liked the rock climbing , I made it to the top on half of the walls. The last breakfast was ice cream, two jelly’s, brownies, bacon, sausages, spuds and other breakfast food. Oh, and the Narnia room was really cool.

My favourite subject at camp was caving I have been doing caving since I was5 years old.I liked rocking climbing as well because I was so close to be getting 10 secounds on the timing rock wall.If you got below 10 secounds you would win a chocolate bar.

Faith Smith

My Favourite day was the last day because we ate ice cream, jelly, and brownies for breakfast. I loved rock climbing and caving and at night when we had the eating contest that was hilarious. My best one challenge in the cave was the toaster and cork screw and I loved the tramps we did it in the forest and farm lands.

My favourite parts of camp were caving and rock climbing. I liked rock climbing because even though I was a little bit nervous I still made it to the top of a few of the walls. On the timed wall I got 20 seconds. I really enjoyed the caving because it was something that I had never really done before. I wasn’t nervous for the caving even though it pushed me very far out of my comfort zone.

Sam

2018-03-14 20:36:19 UTC

My favorite part of camp was the caving and the rock climbing because I have never done anything like caving. The Old Coach was also really fun because we got to see the big Via duck bridge and the massive tunnel. The food on camp was really good because Mrs Dumble made it.

My favourite is the messing around with all the parents and teachers and people we haven't really hangout with before.

When the first day ended i couldn't stop talking about the parents be so funny and some of them were acting like they were 5
