Year 6 Camp - The Ranch

Student Reflections

My favourite highlight of this three day camp would probably be horse riding because horse riding helped me overcome my fear of animals because every horse there was very well trained and very calming. On the horse, the view was extravagantly vibrant creating a great scenery of mountains. - Felicia

I enjoyed the giant swing because I went to the very top and I also enjoyed Mountain Boarding because I got to go down the entire mountain. I liked horse riding because the views were really good and it was a fun and interesting experience to ride Rocky, my horse. - Hashane

This was my first camp and it was a really good experience. My favourite activity was horse riding when we rode through the grassy plains of the meadow, I felt calm and connected to my horse. - Sara

Camp was a really great experience. We did lots of different, unique activities such as Horse riding, Mountain Boarding, and the Leap of Faith. Mountain Boarding was like snowboarding, but with wheels. It was really fun riding down the hill, but it was kind of hard to move because they put lots of protective gear on us. Horse Riding was really cool, but it was kind of hard because my horse kept bending it’s head down making the rein go down too. Leap of Faith looked quite scary at first, but it was really fun. We had to climb up a pole and then jump off and try to touch a large orange ball. The meals tasted good too. We had food like burgers, schnitzels, and pasta. - Josh

I liked the unique activities such as mountain boarding, horse riding and leap of faith. My favourite one was horse riding because we were practically riding the horses by ourselves. Leap of faith was really fun where we could climb at a such great height and enjoy the view and then jump off. - Adrian

Riding horses was definitely a new experience for everyone and I’m sure everyone enjoyed it. Riding on Stanley was one of the best camp experiences I’ve ever had. All the activities were a blast, including the Leap of Faith, Mountain boarding and much more. The mountain boarding was really similar to Snowboarding so it was obviously very fun. The staff were great and everyone got enough sleep, which was surprising. My favourite food was the burger. - Tyler

My highlight would probably be horse riding as the view was spectacular and it was my first time on a horse and the horses were very confident and respectful. Mountain boarding was very fun, and I was able to make a couple stops and get to level four. I think crate stack was very eventful, and I got 8 crates that I climbed. Crate Stack was something I’ve never done before and I think it was okay, and I did quite well. - Akira
