My camp experience was unbelievable. Phillip Island Adventure Resort was like a dream camp. There was a massive green oval great for AFL or soccer, a tall grassy hill to roll down and comfy hay bales to sit on and chat to each other. Right next to that was our dining hall. The Menu: Monday: Dinner was pasta bolognese and dessert was choc-mousse. Tuesday: Breckie was toast and cereal, lunch was burgers and dinner was chicken tenders and veg. Wednesday: Brekkie was the same as Tuesday and lunch was packed rolls.

The activities were excellent. Archery, Giant swing, free time, team building and my favorite, canoeing! I enjoyed every millisecond! Cabin time was always fun too. My cabin had Me, Joel, Jesse W, Yuval B and Adam. On night 1, we went to Amaze ‘n’ Things. We did a maze, and things (mini golf and illusions). It was truly amazing! On night 2, we watched Aladdin, the classic, funny, movie. I loved camp and I would go there every day if I could!!!!! -

On day 1, we all were waiting to get on the bus. We got on the bus and we drove and we stopped to see the pelicans after we finished watching the pelicans we got back on the bus. When we got there we played outside then we did our first activity which was archery. It was really fun and on my first go I got in the yellow. Then we found out our cabins and after dinner we went to amaze n things.

On day 2, we had three activities. Mine were free time ,giant swing and team rescue. And after we got to go to the beach and after we got dinner which was chicken tenders.

We left on the 27th of april and drove nearly two hours to our destination which was sam merino. We watched the pelicans for half an hour before we left for camp. When we arrived at camp everyone had their first activity. For me I had the giant swing, I was one of the last in my group to go so I gotta watch everyone go before I did. I was really nervous but I knew I had to do it some time. I built up my courage and went to the top of the giant swing. As I swung down my arm popped and I could barely move it for the rest of the day but it was worth it.

On the second day my favourite activity was canoeing. As we got down to the lake everybody lined up to get their life jackets, helmets and our oars.She told us the basics of how to guide the boat and we set off. We mucked around and played some games and then it was time to get out.

On wednesday we woke up early to start packing and leave the cabins then play outside. After breakfast we had our last activity but for my group we could do anything we wanted to.First we had to do a few jobs but after that we were free to do a majority of activities. First I played table tennis and then I moved on to cage soccer which I turned out to be pretty good at.

A few hours later we arrived back at school and we finally got to move our legs and see our families again.

When we got to camp the teachers got a tour of the camp and we were left to play on the hills. Then when the teachers came back we went to the first activity. I was hoping to get archery because that was the worst activity so I could settle in. So I actually did get archery so I was pretty happy about that. In archery there was a six meter, eight meter, ten meter and a twelve meter target. I was terrible but on the twelve meter one I managed to hit the target. I was in the activity group called the handsome flat peas and all the groups were actually named after local flora. I was in a cabin with Ben, Jesse, Alex, Hudson and alfie.

My favorite activity was team building where we had to get a dummy to the other side of the course without falling.

My activity group had duty groups on the second dinner.

On the evening of the full day we went for a beach walk and the sand felt like quicksand. (Which is just water and sand.

Camp was really fun but I think they should make them longer.

As we arrived at Phillip Island Camp Resort we pushed everyone's suitcase to the wall. We weren’t allowed to look at our cabins yet because we had activities to do and we had to listen to the instructions. I was in a group with a lot of my friends, for groups we had different names for different groups and the names were based off native plants. All of the activities were super fun: canoeing, giant swing, team rescue, free-time and archery. On the first night we ate pasta for dinner and it was super delicious, after dinner we all got our torches and then walked to a place as a cohort named amaze 'n' things, we did mirror mazes, illusion room, golfing, drop slide and a super duper giant maze. In the morning we were offered to go for a run with Mr wink but i was way too tired to run. We ate toast with jam, butter or vegemite and cereal if we wanted. We finished our activities and then headed off to the bus and then made a stop to a pretty ocean walk and we took a few photos at watched waves splashing together. We made one last stop to eat lunch, go to the bathroom and play for a few minutes then we went on the bus to go back to school. It was a fantastic experience!
