Splash!

WALT: compose a poem about the waterslide

Splash!

Excitement filled the air at the waterslide.
Impatiently waiting for my turn.
Hearing screams and laughter everywhere.
Seeing people land in the mud or people coming to halts.
My turn now.
Water splashing all about.
Then a whole Octopus of water wrapped around my face.
Not knowing what just happened, I slid roughly into the mud.

Earning My Trust (Unfinished)

WALT: write descriptive recount about Senior Camp.

In St. Bernadette's every two years the Senior School always goes to camp for three days and two nights. We went to Woodend Christian Camp this year and today we had to write a recount about an activity we thought we couldn't achieve but ended up did.

Team Building
I thought this activity was going to be the worst, turned out it was my favorite.


One of the activities we did at camp was Team Building. I had heard a lot about this and most of the things I had heard were all negative things about it. When it was my groups turn to go to Team Building I got a bit scared from all the negative things people said about it.


When we got there we met one of the camp instructors and his name was Willy. We did this activity that was like us trying to solve it, so we had to hold hands with each other and there were two big wooden poles and we kind of made an infinity sign and we had to try and go all around the two poles and then try and get to the place we were before but without letting go of each other. After a while Tali came up with an idea and we ended up going much faster in doing it.


After this activity we went to these other two long wooden poles and there was a pole on top of them as well. We had to try and get to the top of the pole and hang there and drop off. The boys were on one side and the girls were on the other side. While climbing up we had to climb on Tali’s back and then when we got to the top we had to wrap our body around the top pole making us look like a sloth and then we had to flip over and drop to the ground. When I jumped to the ground I felt very shocked that I actually survived this.


The last activity we did was the climbing wall this was probably the most interactive and exciting one we did and in this one we had to again climb onto someone’s back and get lifted up and we had to try and get our shoulders over the wall and pull ourselves up. Max stayed up at the top to carry us up. You were only allowed three people on the top so when you got up you either just volunteered to get off or you could do “Rock, Paper, Scissors”.
