Te Wera Camp 2015

A fun event at Camp:

I Loved the great Te Wera challenge. It was a beautiful day. Why i loved the Te Wera challenge was because we did all this challenging activities that i found interesting, strange and exciting. All of the activities were amazing. My favourite activity was when we had to climb to the top a massive massive hill. I am use to climbing big hills but not as steep as what this hill was. i was sort of annoyed that we had to climb this beast. When we got to the top of the hill we had to make a pyramid which nearly made me faint. I tried to look for things out in the area but i couldn't see much because there are so many Big hills. And the Camp looked tiny. When everybody was up the big! hill we started to plan what it would look like. We put the people that was heavy at the bottom and the light at the top i had Wilson on my back and he was digging his knees in my back. after the parents took the picture i accidentally slipped it was hilarious.

A wonderful learning moment:

Me and My brilliant group were following Nick. I kept asking Nick how much further in my most terrible voice. Not Much further explains Nick ehhhhhhhh i said this sucks. Finally we make it i say my legs feel like Jelly. Then Nick gave us all simple instructions you guys are going to make bivi using rope and 1 tarp. I say yeah right how are we going to do this. Nick then says GO!!! Nick passes the rope to me and passes the tarp to Ethan. Time passes and we have only 1 minute left and i am sitting in the bivi with Shanelle as you can hear everybody shouting at one of another we need to do this or we should do this or HURRY UP. it was funny Times up don't touch it says Nick he examines it he is not very happy oh no someone has got a grumpy face. He takes our group up to a little area to teach us how to build a bivi. And how to survive. I like to learn about surviving in the wild or learning survival first aid skills. Nick taught my whole group and another group. How to make a little shelter that i found was interesting. He taught us what things we need to bring you never know you could end up lost. My butt was getting saw because i was sitting on twigs and branches it hurt i said crap. i am so lucky because Nick is my neighbor so that works out well.
