Spring Bay Mill Camp Student Report
The moment we got to camp we were able to see so many interesting things to do and memories to make. We were first introduced to our dining room where we were constantly delivered scrumptious food that was grown and made on the property. We were then introduced to some of the places around the area like the tin shed (where we had to sleep for the first night because of wind) and had a lap around the eighty-acre piece of land. We were then allowed to go to a pebbled beach where we fished, skipped rocks and got to climb the rocks along the shore. One of the best bits about camp was we got to go to the beach every day. Through the next week we periodically went to the garden where we planted flowers, learned about micro greens and grew our knowledge on herbs. The best day was when we went to Maria Island because we got to go on a boat ride and sit on the top deck. When we landed we were immediately greeted with the cute furry faces of wombats. We saw about 15. We went on two hikes where we got to look out to the sea from the top of a cliff. We got to do many other things at camp like surfing and fishing. Going to camp was an eye opening experience that we all loved and we hope to go again.
