Year 5 camp

On the first of March we brought our bags to school to get ready for camp.  Then we got in class lines and started to walk to the bus. When  we were there, my dad and other parents helped to put the bags away. Once they got on the bus, we were ready to leave. I tried to sleep on the bus but it was too noisey.  It took about half an hour to get there.  Some of the children thanked the bus driver while the parents helped unload the bus.  At the Marae we waited for the two ladies to welcome us on to the Marae.  The girls went first followed by the boys.  Inside the meeting house we listened to speeches and sang some songs.  The lady explained all about the inside of the meeting house.  We got into four groups and did different activities such as weaving, making fried bread, stick games and how to use pois.  After lunch she shown us where they cook the hangi.

The camp was really fun.
