Camp At Spencer Park

Me and Zaza fishing

                                                                          Camp

On Thursday March 6th we Biked down to Spencer park.

On The journey we had a lot of ups and downs literally we had to go over a lot of hills. The worst part was pushing my bike up this MASSIVE hill . The best part was being able to talk to my friends on the way there and back even if I was the last person they (Robbie) still stayed back but Rylin he just zoomed off ahead without a care in the world.

When we got to camp DRAMA stuck. So... when we got to camp me and Robbie were looking for the tent and when we found it and unpacked it we realised there were no poles!!! But 1 hour later Robbie started crying and saying he let everyone down but we reassured him that everyone makes mistakes and we could ask Sharon for a spare but he said he did not want to be there anymore but we still got a tent  from Sharon. 

When we put up the tent Robbie was still crying so Sharon called his mum and asked were the poles were and Robbie´s mum said ¨Its in a different bag with the name rothgat (or something like that).¨ so we looked for it so Robbie would stay. We found it and put it up with Sid´s dad leith.

 When it was done Robbie was soo happy and we were all stoked.we just said wow, this is a portable mansion. We all set up our beds and furniture and got food out for dinner. Then josh pushed his head to the window and said “egggggghhh” we said he was a mongoose we all laughed (including Josh.) 

Then at like 5pm we went to the MASSIVE bouncing pillow. We played a pushing game where we push each other off. Now that I am am looking back I realise that was not a good game at all. Zaza was just playing the game when Nick T got in a fight with him. We tried to stop them but it ended as quickly as it started. We played that game until we got called to make our dinner.  

What we had for dinner was supposed to be some of kebabs because I brought potatos, Zaza brought sausages, Rylin brought homemade rocky road (I think) and Robbie brought salad. Before camp I told Zaza to bring pre-heated sausages. So we asked Leith(Sids dad) how long it would take to cook sausages in a microwave. He said "at least three minutes." When we got back we used the skewers to pick up the food. 

When we were done we ate Rylins rocky road. Then we got called down to discuss a program called William Pike Challenge. Once the teachers had finished talking about W.P.C  (William Pike Challenge. ) We played a massive game of predator which is where you get 5 lives and try not to get tagged. 

At first me and Robbie did not try at all and we sat in chairs near where we started and all the parents walked right passed us and we cracked-up laughing and then a man came and tagged us and told us to run so we did. Next Robbie and me sat on a bench and by this point Robbie was taking it a lot more seriously so when a man came Robbie sprinted away and I got tagged and the man told me I should actually play so I did. I met up with Robbie near the bushes and we lied down with a whole bunch of people, When a rustle came from the Bush we all freaked out because next we heard a loud siren from behind us we all bolted away from there but sadly someone was to slow and got tackled down on the ground. Then the remaining few of us hid behind the entry sign, but we made to much noise and someone came to get us but forgot to take away one of our lives. Do we ran. The game ended i had three lives left (technically two). I had done it I didn't get found yus were free.

When was time to go to sleep we heard these people from our school shouting a chant. We were furious and enraged that they chose now to sing and shout. So we all chated and laughed until they stopped and got told to go to sleep.

The next morning I woke up by Robbie saying "Kaeden wake up." So I got up, got dressed and then Zaza woke up so we waited for him but Rylin still had not woken up after breakfast we went back to the tent to get ready to get all our stuff out and take down the tent but Rylin was sleeping like a sloth we could not wake him up until 9:30am. 

Then we unpegged the pegs and took down the poles and then since this MASSIVE tent had to fit in a tiny bag we had to have a teacher help us fold the tent. Once we had done that we went down to the MASSIVE bouncing pillow. We played until our friend Rhycos got in a fight with lauryn . 

After that we went to the camp site to go to our groups for activities. Me, Zaza and Sid went fishing . Me and Zaza didn't realize that most other people brought their own fishing rods so we got scared because we thought we were just going to watch for forty minutes, fortunately Dominic had two spare fishing rods. When we got to the waimakariri river mouth we put bait on and a sinker. I was definitely not an expert at fishing but luckily Zaza was. Once we were ready we fished I thought I had caught a wopper but sadly I had it stuck between two rocks so the line snapped. Then I shared a rod with Zaza. Thank you Nogo for taking us there and thank you Dominic for showing and lending us a rod. 

When that ended we all went back to the camp site and me and Robbie rode around on our bikes until it was lunch. LUNCH WAS DELICIOUS IT WAS SOO GOOD(sadly now I have forgotten what breakfast and lunch were so that sucks.). After that we packed our stuff on the backs of the school vans. 

Before we went back the walkers got to go back in a van. And we had to wait until like 2:00 pm me And Robbie were at the back of the pack and every one else with us got injuries by the time we where a kilometer away from school it was only me, Robbie and Noah and our teacher Mr Redmond. When we got back to school it was 3:30.

That was my camp.
