On Thursday the 27th of February, the classes PL and PO left for a two day camp at Lake Kimihia. Twenty minutes later we were off the bus and into camp.

In fact the ground was so hard that you couldn’t get the pegs into the ground without a mallet. The people in my tent were Oscar and Dante.
After that, everyone was sorted into teams with a year 10 group leader and the activities started. There were five activities. My two favourite activities were making popcorn over a fire and paddleboarding.
After a long day of activities, we walked up to the brazier and started roasting marshmallows and singing songs. There was a great vibe and everyone was having fun.
Oscar and I were called up to pop some popcorn over the brazier. This was new to both Oscar and I and we were surprised that anyone would cook popcorn over a fire. First we put some kernels in a mesh box thing and then we put it over the fire and held it by the handle. While cooking it, we had to spin the popcorn so it wouldn’t burn, afterwards we ate it while singing more songs. Overall it was a fun night.
In the morning it was cold. On the way to paddleboarding the air was freezing. It felt like you were an ice block walking to the lake. Once there we put on life jackets and got into pairs. I was paired with Oscar. We got onto the paddleboards and started paddling around the lake. After some time we decided to stand up and paddle. Shortly after we both fell into the icy cold water. Throughout the paddle boarding we both fell off three times (it was mainly my fault though).
All in all it was a really fun experience worth much more than the small 20 dollar donation, I would definitely go again.
