Today is the day Room 7 goes camping,
We first went to school and loaded our bags in the bus, we then walked inside
the bus and there we met Mikey, he is the bus driver, waved our parents bye and hit the road.
We played remix music, while we are on the road we saw awesome views of the sea and the mountains.
After three hours
of sitting on our seats, we finally stopped at Whangarei to have a quick bite for
20 minutes and we then we are back on the road to go to the next stop.
We then entered the Waitangi Treaty grounds, there we met two very kind man.
They welcomed us and introduced themselves,
their names are Chris and Magnus and they are told us they o from Camp adventure for good.
Chris ordered us to go
in a circle to play a game, he explained how to play the game, we have to toss a
tennis ball and introduced ourselves, we passed the tennis ball around and say our
names, and then I got the tennis ball, I first saw my name and then my favourite thing to do.
We met two lovely ladies standing behind us are Whaea Roi and Margery.
Whaea Roi led us near the Marae, she first told us to form a circle and she gave us a sticker and
wrote our name on it.
She then led us to the powhiri, the powhiri was amazing we watched the kapa haka people
perform and it was so cool but before we enter the wharenui we had to take our shoes off.
We followed Whaea Roi to the flags, we learnt about the flags,
New Zealand’s first flag was Te Kara and then the Britsh Union flag,
finally the New Zealand flag.
With walked our way to the museum, we saw the nine pieces of the treaty,
the treaty has not been cared well and it was found underneath
Busby's house while it was there the rats nibbled it.
We went for our next stop which is to see the big waka, the waka is made out of a big tall Kauri tree,
it can fit 120 people in it, Whaea Roi gave us a tiny paper to draw apart on the carvings.
After the adventure, we waved Whaea Roi and Whaea Imagean goodbye and we went back on the
road to go to our last destination which is the Orongo Bay, Holiday Park.
When we arrived at the campsite we saw Chris and Magnus again, we grabbed our
bag from the bus and placed in front of the common room.
Mrs Raj first announced our cabins and our roommates.
\When we are sent to our cabins we placed our stuff down, picked our beds and fixed our bed,
after that, we headed back to the front of the common room.
Chris ordered us to follow him, when are there already,
Mrs Raj announced our groups and the Captains.
We played Orientering while we are in a knot, we needed to find the codes.
Afterwards, we finally finished and went back to the common room to eat dinner,
our dinner was fish and chips with bread( only if you want bread).
The dinner was appetizing, later that we went to our cabins to get our
toiletries and walked our way to the toilets for a three minutes warm shower and brushed our teeth.
We went back to our cabins to sleep for tomorrow,
but some kids stayed up talking and got in trouble. Anyway, we enjoyed our day today.
