On Wednesday 2nd November 9:30am Room 9 and 8 left the school grounds on-the-go to Te Wera Camp grounds,round 'bout 30 minutes (36 kilometres) East of Stratford. It was just over an hours drive from school.
We arrived at Te Wera just after 10:30am. After parking the car(which took a while) we met up in the hall and had a talk with one of the owner's called Sandy. She just mainly told us 'what to do' and 'what not to do' basically the rules.
Afterwards we had our morning tea packed from home, and ate it outside in the warm sun. That was around 11ish then we got to go to our cabins. Girls and boys were separated into different blocks. We had already sorted who we were going in our cabins with the day before camp back at school, so we unpacked everything and put them in our cupboards. We could only fit 3 people in each cabin, two people in a bunk and one single bed. As a class we had a walk..well really a tour around the camp site. After that, we had lunch packed from home.
Shortly after lunch Room 9 did the first our activities. These included archery, orienteering and volleyball. We were split up into groups of 9 and we had at least 40 minutes for each session.
