Room 6 Camp

Last week I was lucky enough to accompany Room 6 on their camp. The first night was spent at the Rapaka Marae and the second night at Living Springs.

Yet again I came home from a Waltham School camp feeling so fortunate to have spent my time with such a fantastic group of children and adults. Everyone participated positively in the huge range of camp activities. Walks, climbing, weaving, archery, swimming, farm yard, horse riding.... it was an amazing time.

A huge 'Thank You' to Mrs Topp for the wonderful job she did organising and running  the camp,  and to Mr Deadmarsh and Sylvia for joining us to help supervise and care for the group.

A huge 'Thank You', also to the Red Cross who's grant meant we were able to provide the $200+pp camping experience completely free to all families this year.

The class arrive and are welcomed on to the Rapaki Marae

A little more tired the next day...but still having fun!

I hope you enjoy some of these photos.

We now look forward to Room 9's camp next term.
