Grade 6 Camp Reflection  

by Amelie & Odette 6A

We arrived at camp Jungai on the first day of Term 4 after a long bus ride.  We had many fun activities to do over the course of four days, including a high ropes course, canoes, raft building and many more.

A favourite activity was the possum pull. You're harnessed to a rope, and your peers pull you around 15 metres into the air while you hold two teddy bears.  The goal is to try to drop them straight into a bucket below.

On one of the three nights, we slept in tents on a big oval. We cooked our dinner over a fire, which consisted of stir fry with noodles, vegetables and teriyaki sauce.  On our last night at camp we gathered in a big room and Auntie, who is a local Wurundjeri elder, told us some of her favorite dreamtime stories.

We had so much fun at Camp Jungai & made so many good memories.
