Camp example text .

 School camps are good because children get new experiences and it helps us build confidence and independence. Camp is a natural thing to do when you're in year 7 , 8 and all the above.  

Camp is generally fun because you get to do outside activities, make new friends , not focus on social media and get to know new people. For some people Roasting marshmallows, leaving their parents, bunking with friends, eating new food and getting out of Auckland might be new to them. Outdoor activities such as  Kayaking , paddleboarding, orienteering, rock climbing or even going on a night time stroll might be fun for first timers.  For example at my camp it was my first time doing Kayaking , sitting on a hammock and orienteering. Kayaking was pretty fun because it was hard to paddle my way to the other side, I was with Metui so it was a bit complicated to communicate with him. Orienteering was fun as well so I hope I get to revisit it at year 9 camp.

Electronics, Energy drinks etc were not allowed at camp because we are all game addicts , for example drug addicts so that we didn’t focus on our devices instead of doing the activities the teachers set up.

School Camp helps build confidence and independence, like for example learning new skills / experiences, learning peoples cultures, encouraging others to do the right things and also help with activities. Building confidence can start to build by doing  Kayaking, Paddle Boarding, orienteering, rock climbing and night walking. A camp night walk takes about 20 - 30 minutes of time to walk there and back. I heard paddle boarding was fun but luckily I slept in haha. My experience was pretty alright with team building because the night and morning walks energized me up for the morning.
