The Burma trail from Leilani williams
Dear Mr G
I would like to tell you why we need school camps- to ove come our fears. Before the Burma trail heaps of us were crying because we were scared of the dark. After the Burma trail I was so proud of myself. I learnt how to trust the parents, and the rope.

Orienteering by Quinn N
Hi room 6!
On Tuesday I went to camp at Omatua and I did Orienteering with my tribe, Totara. It was one of our activities.
Orienteering is a long walk following a map and using an ipod.
We walked up a steep hill on Mr Absolum's farm which has a private road. The road had black tar and lots of stones, and it was a sunny day. I saw cows and sheep. I also saw lots of cow poo and sheep poo.

Finally it was the finish. I was so hot!

The Sand Dunes By Rebekah
In the holidays Mum took us to Levin but we actually stayed in Foxton (which is about 20 minutes from Levin). We slept in bunks, which is really fun apart from when your big sister keeps on rocking the bed too much. I liked coming home to the bach every night and organizing my bed. One night I was really lucky,(since I always wish I could sleep on the top,) my big sister went and stayed at my aunty's so I got to sleep on the top bunk with my little sister sleeping on the bottom. In the morning while my little sister and I were still in bed we passed notes to each other with my rope. One morning we got to go to the sand dunes. My legs got sore from climbing the steep sand dunes. Unfortunately it wasn't a very nice day but we still really enjoyed it.

Readers Theatre by Aniela
I walked onto the stage and I saw the faces of the audience staring at me. I saw my mum and it seemed like she was glaring at me.The narrators started the play,''Once upon a time there was a kind carpenter named Gepetto".When the play had finished we sang 'Do you love me pinocchio' by Maria Dallas.
The audience cheered loudly. After the audience had stopped cheering Rosemary spoke and then we walked off the stage.Choir by Tyler
- When I walked on to the stage I felt shy. I saw lots of people in the audience. I saw the principal in the audience. We were about to sing our first song Frere Jacques. I thought the song was too slow and I was a little bored until someone I don't know who tried to kick me off the stage. I would of turned around and said stop but no one was allowed to turn around. We all had to face the front and sing. I was worried I was going to fall off the stage. Luckily, I did not. When we had finish Frere Jacques the audience clapped. We were about about to sing our next song 'Waltzing Matilda' from Australia. I felt butterflies in my stomach. We were about to sing 'Canada in my pocket'. I stopped being nervous. We sang Canada in my pocket and the audience cheered. The super six stood up and went to the side. We were singing Somewhere over the Rainbow. I said in my mind 'Yes, we're singing my favourite song. Now it was over and Sasha finished our performance by saying "Well done choir, I could listen to your singing all night." I was so happy because I had been practising hard and it really paid off.

I walked on stage bravely getting ready for the play. We got into our places and the Narrators started their lines 'Once upon a time there was a kind carpenter named Gepetto'. Then the play started. I had been waiting for a long time when finally I said my first line and I felt like their were butterflies in my stomach. A little later on the play finished then we got into our places for the song Pinocchio by Maria Dallas. All of Readers Theatre were moving like puppets in the olden days. I wasn't expecting a song that went with the play Pinocchio.

As I walked on stage I felt a little nervous. When I was in line Sasha and Rosie introduced my group. Rosie ran back into line.I waited for Mr Wright to pick up his guitar and we started to sing Frere Jacques for our first song. In the middle of the song I thought that I was going to forget my part but I didn't. I felt pleased because we sounded great. When we finished the audience started clapping. Mr Wright started picking his guitar and we sang waltzing Matilda. That went pretty fast and everyone clapped. The next song was Canada in my Pocket. Rebecca walked over to the piano. She started to play the introduction and we started to sing. Last but not least was Somewhere over the Rainbow and Rebecca came back into position. The super six went out and I was feeling tired.
Gymnastics by Bradley
As I was waiting to go on stage, I felt nervous. The kapa haka group started first.
After kapa haka finished it was gymnastics group to start.
When we started I thought to myself I hope I don't make a mistake. For the first routine
we had to do a cart-wheel, forward roll, a lean up, jump up, jump around and do a back wards roll.
When every one had finished the routine we went on to the other routine. The other routine was with hoops. With the hoops we held them in our hands like a steering-wheel walking across the
stage. We rolled it to our buddy then threw it to our buddy, then skipped for 3 seconds, spun it and
and swung the hoops with our arms. When the second routine finished we had to do the last routine to finish. The last routine was when six people had to forward roll on the stage and stand up straight and do a bow.When we had finished I felt happy. Then the audience clapped.

The Choir by Dylan
As I walked on to the stage I said in my head "am I going to screw up". When I was on stage I saw lots of people that were looking at me, I have a hammer in my chest going bang, bang, bang. Mr Wright was play his guitar. Frere Jacques was the 1st one, bang, bang, bang. Frere Jacques ended, we did Waltzing Matilda, Canada in my pocket, and Somewhere over the raibow. when it was the Dancing group, at the end we all stood up and did the dancing.
Gymnastics By Brooklyn
Kapahaka. By Sienna.
My hands were trembling as I was sitting on the stage. I saw the faces from the crowd glaring at me. Then I felt a hard hammering feeling in my chest. I was so shy and I thought I would forget the song words in the tremendous performance. When all the Kapahaka
people were ready, Maia called out loud, "Taringa Whakarongo" and so everyone sat on their knees from sitting on their side. Then Maia called loud again "etu" and so everyone in Kapahaka people stood up and smiled. Mrs Lowe nodded her head at Paia and Aleesha then the two girls started to do a Karanga and all the girls did the wiri. When the two girls finished, Maia said "Hopi" and then said "Haere Mai Haere Mai toru wha"then everyone started to sing Haere Mai. When we had sung Haere Mai once Maia said "ano" so everyone sung Haere Mai again, when we went through Haere Mai the second time the back row of girls took a step into the front row and the front row of girls went to the back. I was in the row at first but then I turned into the back row. When the girls started the poi I felt sceared because the boys were sitting down and the audience could see us. we were holding our pois they were flying through the air. To finish our purformence the boys did the haka and it was very loud. When it was finished I felt proud of my self because we had been practising for a while and our practising paid of. I injoied myself.
Kapahaka by Liam
The crowd went silent and Aleesha and Paia did the karanga. I felt so scared because everyone was looking straight at my eyes. We started singing haere mai. The whole group sang loudly until haere mai was finished. Then we did Nga iwi e and that was boring and we ended with rua ana whati whati Hi!. The girls did the poi and nearly hit my head so I had to duck down and try not to get hit. Finally it was my time to shine. Bryn said 'Kia mau, Ka mate, ka mate ka ora ka ora. I felt tingly in my tummy. I was so relieved when it was over.
dance by corbyn
I was happy as I walked on stage. I said to my self I hope I don't forget my dance. I felt like its a dream but its not. Then everything went silent. Miss hill turned chori chori on, then we danced. At the start we waved our arms and then we had our arms like a chicken's wings. And when it was a third of the way through we moved our arms really fast up and down. luckily chori chori turned off. We got ready to dance to Coconut. We started off by making are hands look like we are hitting drums. then coconut turned off, then kotanitanga turned on. When it was half way through the boys did the boys haka we slapped our thighs and brought our hands back. it was finished, I was relieved it was all over.

When I walked on to the stage I saw my coach in the crowd. I saw him smiling at us. I was happy when we were doing the roly poly and cart-wheels. I thought I was going to crash into Bradley when we were doing the roly poly and cart-wheels. My tummy felt sore and my heart was beating like a hammer. I was hoping that we were not going to make a mistake in the gymnastics show. At the end we all stood up and did five roly polys each on the stage. Then we waited for Rosie and Sasha to finish us off. I was happy because we were finished.

It felt like their was one million people staring at me with exited faces. I was looking for my friend Nakita, suddenly I found her right there in the middle. Oh no I forgot my words, I heard Alex say "Pinocchio it is true you are, I just remembered at that point and joined in, beautiful and with my magic wand i will give you life for 24 hours. I felt so imbarest after that because Mrs Kelly looked at me in an evil way.I hid behind Astella's wheel chair and hoped knowone would see me
(but they did)"pinocchio I want you to be a brave honest and generus boy, to always be a real boy you must prove you can be a good son so every time you tell a lie you're nose will grow and when you tell the truth it will become normal again. After the play, Pinocchio, we sang the song pinocchio" do you love me pinoccio tell me..." the song ended and we all froze like statues then the audiance started claping. Rosie started speaking, the audiance clapped once more as a song came on to tell Readers Theatre to get off the stage.

We stood in our places and waited for Rosie to introduce Readers theater group. When Rosie had finished there was no sound at all. Then the Narrators nudged each other as a signal to start. I opened the book and suddenly big eels started swimming in my stomach. I remembered there was a gap between the stage and the wall. " I'm going to fall off !!! A screaming voice was in my head.
The play went on and on. It seemed it would go on and on forever. Finally the play ended I closed the book and gave it to Mrs Kelly and stood in another place like the other children ( in the play group)
The music started and the group started to dance and sing like a puppet.The song was called Pinocchio made by maria Dallas in the 1960's. Some adults sang with us. The song ended and the play group stood in a pose of a puppet and everyone clapped.

Choir By Rebekah
The audience became silent and Sasha and Rosemary introduced my group, the choir. My heart thumped and my hands trembled. The butterflies in my stomach became bigger and bigger. I didn't want to be there but it was too late to even try to get off the stage.
As Mr Wright started picking his guitar, we started singing Frere Jacques. The audience turned and some started singing with us. The nervousness began to go away and the song finished. The crowd clapped loudly and Mr Wright started off the next song, Waltzing Matilda.
Hopefully I won't forget my words, I thought to myself. Luckily I didn't. Again the crowd clapped and Mr Wright looked at me.
That was the signal. My body tingled as I slipped off the stage and down the steps to the piano. This is it I thought to myself as I pulled the piano stool out and set my music up. I just had to find the right pedal and wait for Mr Wright's other signal to start. My hands sweated and Mr Wright gave me the signal. I started playing the introduction to Canada in my Pocket. The singing started and after I played the last bit of the song it finished. I felt proud of myself for finishing the song without making any big mistakes.
Quickly I rushed back to my place and started singing the next song Somewhere over the Rainbow. The crowd clapped loudly and Sasha finished our performance saying, "Wow I could listen to that singing all night. Rebekah your piano playing was superb and Mr Wright that was pretty good guitar picking."
