The day started out with the students going on a run, I had just missed the run by the time I arrived at the camp. Then the six groups of students go to different stations for an hour and a half. The day is broken up by morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner. There is a lot of eating, but it is extremely healthy eating. I love how we get a morning and afternoon break for a snack. It is even like this in the schools! The night ended up giving out rewards to individual students and to the teams who won at all the activities. Then, each group put on a skit. It was so fun to watch the students work together and bond.

Camp Day
Today was a very very long day for me, but an amazing day. At my school, all the year 9 students go to camp for 4 days. Each year 9 house in the school goes to a different camp and the Snell house, the house that I am part of, went to Motu Moana Scout camp. It was a gorgeous place to be at and today was a hot and sunny day. My day started off leaving the house at 7:20 and not getting home until 10:30 and I have to teach in the morning! But the day was well worth it and much better than sitting in the classroom. The camp is about getting the students to bond with each other through team building activities. The students must work together in order to complete the tasks.
