To start it off rafting was very fun We did camp fires food, not the best food (Cough Cough the pancake people. Spotlight was fun. we made some jokes at the campfires. It was very hard to get to sleep because it was so cold and people were talking. and in the middle of the night, Mr McAuley knocked on our tent and said. WHAT ARE YOU DOING its the middle of the night everyone can hear you. and the next day woke up hade some breakfast then went rafting near the end we had to walk to shore and out feet were numb. then we discussed what out favourite thing was about the camp and Daniel said getting back to shore my favourite bit was going down the rapids

Rock climbing and abseiling journal


I woke up in the morning very excited and a bit scared for rock climbing and abseiling the car ride was so boring but I loved rock climbing because it was not like clip and climb where you know where to climb you have to find out a way to get up and abseiling was fun and scary because you have to work yourself down the mountain and it’s all up to you. well not really but if you fall you will go straight down unlike falling in rock climbing where you would just stay there but abseiling is still very fun and easy to learn. sadly we did not get to see any dolphins apparently the group the went before us saw a dolphin. also in 2 days, we are going rafting this is an overnight trip so we get to go into a tent with some friends and eat some food.

Weekly Reflection

Yesterday was fun because we got to do electronic things like racing our little cars first we got wires to put in the circuit and LEDs and we made this little LED light to light up and we put four of them on our circuit and we got to use the buzzer and whenever you flicked the switch it made a really really loud sound. and two days ago steve gurney came around he is an inspirational talker He talked about how he always get last in the cross countries but when he got to high school in the longer run he gets around the middle of the bunch so he said "hey I'm better and long distance runs. so he done a marathon it was his first time and im pretty sure he got 23rd then he tried again got 3rd and then he started training more he done the marathon but he got third again so he trained even more and he got second and he was sure he could get first but he did not so then he said to himself "I should be doing smarter training not longer training" so he done smarter trainer then for the fifth time he's done it he got first place.

My accident

I went down to school to ride my scooter with my friends we went down the ramp a couple times but that got boring so we done a race because the last time I done that was when I was 9 or something. It went good for a while then I was coming first then my brother cut the course and was not letting me move so I speed up then he speed up I was about to get in front of him. he turned really quickly. I fell over and could not walk I had to get a hand so I went to bed and watched tv it was 7pm so soon after I went to sleep I woke up and It was really swollen mum took me to the hospital we waited for a while then they told me I needed crutches for 2 weeks. and that's how I am in crutches

William Pike challenges #1 Caving Cave Stream

It was a really fun time at Cave stream. It was my first time going in a cave and exploring. Well the cave was so cold but it was worth it. I fell over quite a bit also bumped my head quite a bit but I had a helmet on. the climbing was hard to but I had to get up to the cool rock huts. This cave is one of my most wonderful experiences. We had all the gear we needed. Caving cave stream was amazing and that was only our first activity of the William pike challenge awards
