Michaels breathtaking camp

Hi I'm Michael and I'm going to tell you all about my proud achievements at Forest Lakes.

We did 15 different activities but I'm just going to tell you about the ones I'm proud of.

Abseiling: Going down! Man it was spooky! I thought I might fall, but I did it!

Horses:Getting on the horse, sitting on it when it was eating and getting off! Man it was more scary then the abseiling! But I did it!

Confidence Course: I'm VERY proud of being the only one in my group to do the entire thing.

Flying fox: Doing it is what I'm proud of.

Water slide: Being the first boy to do it plus being the only boy in my group to do it without a life jacket and being the 2ND boy to do it!

Ten pin bowling: Being the first person to get a strike.

Archery: Firing the arrow the furtherest.

And that's all. Thanks for reading all about my proud achievements.

Please feel free to leave a comment!

The blasting experience at Forest Lakes!!

Hi! My name is Emily and just recently all the year 5 and 6's at Lytton Street School went to Forest Lakes Camp.

My goal was to do every single activity that we were going to do there and some of them were: Mud Slide, Water Slide, Horse Riding, Tenpin Bowling, Abseiling, Mini Golf, A Oreinteering Course and MUCH MUCH MORE!!!!!

Overall I achieved my goal but something that could have been better was the pool! It was like ice- freezing cold and it took you ages to warm up again!

The highlight of the camp for me was the water-slide- actually going down it!

Our extraordinary camp adventure !!!

On Wednesday the 5th May the Senior Stars went to Forest lakes camp. We did all sorts of things so let me tell you what we did!!

One of the first things we did was the water slide- that was very frightening [you will hear about it in the likes and unlikes]

The mud slide was better because you didn't go flying off the end of the slide.

We also went to the sports field and played t-ball and drop bat.

Volley ball was fun because we were playing girls vs boys.

My group got to do croquet but sadly I didn't get to have a go.

Mini golf wasn't the best for me because the course was all worn out.

Ten pin bowing was a lot of fun because I didn't want a go so the parent said I could be the person setting up the pins when someone made them fall down.

On the first night we all went for a night walk in the bush when it was pitch black! Because we couldn't see, we had to follow a rope.To make it worse the parents were jumping out at us

BOO!

The flying fox was also there and I hit my head but that didn't slow me down a bit! but I got a big bruse from it!

Abseiling is another thing that we did. Now if you have never heard of it before it is when you go up a rock and get tied to a rope and scale the rock all the way down and even get to do a couple of jumps.

We also did horse riding and I got to ride Google the horse [not the internet!] and he was the tallest horse so I could see the breath taking view better than any one else!

The things that I enjoyed the most was the horse riding, flying fox and confidence course.I enjoyed the horse riding because I love horses, flying fox because it was awesome going over the lake glistening in the sun and confidence corse and abseiling because they were challenges for me and I like challenges.

The activities that I didn't like very much were the water slide because it was heart stopping and not in a good way, because when I came off the edge I was thinking, I want to turn back! I don't want to do this any more! I ended up doing it 2 times.

So I give the whole camp a 10 out of 10!!
