Camping At School

We've had an absolutely awesome, action-packed few days camping at school.  Sleeping in the tents was fun, despite noises in the night (trains, cats vs dogs and low flying helicoptors)!  Lots of funny things happened, helping to build a really positive class culture.  Check out the pictures!

Lots of people helped to prepare and clean up after meals.  We were very well fed!


We were split into teams for the annual Room 6 Survivor.  We competed in lots of different challenges that tested our strength, endurance, accuracy, speed, and knowledge.  Congratulations to Olivia D, Jasmine, Trevor, Jago and Jaxson - the champions!


Our Quadathlon was awesome!  Teams competed in swimming, an obstacle course, cycling and running.  It was great to see such extreme determination.  Congratulations to Elen and Logan, who won this event!


We spent loads of time in the pool, doing all kinds of fun, crazy activities.  We made human towers...


And tried to catch a tennis ball...


And tried to balance on the tyre...


And took photos with Nelly's underwater camera...


And fired each other from the kid-launcher...

 
And were amazed at Jago's backflipping skills!
