hmm reminisce..
year 6: canberra- our grade went and we went to questacon.. war memorial.. parliament house etc.. pretty fun because we had a coach and a mini bus and my group had like 10 people in it so we all went on the mini bus and just had my mum and a teacher with us.. and they both slept like the whole way there so we were jumping around and doing stupid things.. that was pretty fun actually
year 7: meroo conference centre- kinda crap because people hardly knew each other.. i think we fell out of a canoe and got all dirty.. meh
year 8:narabeen sports thingo? there were 2 cabins without a lounge room (with tv etc) and i was in one of them so that sucked.. we had a dance with an olympics theme lol funny photos from it... did lots of sporting activities so yeh it was ok
year 8 (future problem solving): i forgot where this camp was but we had to all catch a train there from emu plains.. somewhere way out west.. the rooms were really cool.. one double bed with 3 kinda bunk things.. and like there were 4 rooms in a little house thing with a common room.. so yeh that was good fun.. just spent the time future problem solving. oh yeh and they were all environmentally friendly and their toilets led outside.. they used our crap as fertiliser (you could feel the wind when sitting on the toilet lol) and with the showers u set the temperature before u went in there.. quite an interesting place
year 9: collaroy- we went to the beach so that was good.. i hate the whole communal showers thing.. 4 showers for about 60 people wasnt too crash hot.. it was a peer support training thing so yeh no sporting activites or anything
year 10: stanwell tops- i loved this camp! we got to do the giant swing thing, some orienteering and some teamwork activites.. it was fun getting closer to my homeroom.. and the cabins were heaps nicer (own bathrooms woo!). we had the typical dance and liturgy thing like all camps and the food was ok
year 11: vision valley- i loathe this place :| rooms of 4 people as well as communal bathrooms sucked
as well as having our liturgy up in stringybark which was like away from everything else.. so we all had to walk through the dark at like 10pm.. a few people fell over with the inadequate lighting. alot of our activities were in small random groups.. our year coordinator is good because most of the groups only had 1 or 2 people from each friendship group in the grade.. so it was pretty nicely mixed.. just had alot of group sessions and things
year 12: stanwell tops again- it was such a nice retreat they did alot of nice bonding activities.. they managed to get the groups very well mixed again.. alot of tears shed.. we had a dance and a liturgy.. the typical things.. soo much more freedom than other years
