week 8 term 2 reflection

This week was amazing we got to go sea kayaking it was an amazing experience .When we were there I was just so excited for the experience alone but I never thought it would be that amazing the lake was amazing that was just part of it being able to do it was just fantastic meeting the instructors and getting to kayak was awesome .

The campsite was muddy and the weather was terrible but it didn't bother me too much  all it really did was make it even more fun and more of a challenge. Wasn't the best sleep that night but that's what camping is all about having a challenge.

while heading back it was more of a challenge. when we got back I felt like i had accomplished something amazing i would have to say it was one of the best experiences ever and it made me want to do more and in my opinion it was the best experience ever

week 7 term 2

This week has been one of the greatest experiences of my 12-year-old life .Just the other day my classmates and I went to charleston. The whole car ride I was so excited and scared  but after awhile I wasn't excited or scared .we were so close and then someone vomited.

 We were the first to arrive when we got  there I had convinced myself that I was going to die .once we were all there we got ready we put the harnesses on we played a game then we grabbed our stuff and left .The instructors had us help them  take some gear to the spot we were going climbing and abseiling it was a 15-minute walk to the cliff .Halfway through the walk I was getting  really nerves.

The moment we arrived my insides turned to jelly. We had to climb down to a sea cove it was frightening but at the same time, it was fun if ya know what I mean .We got out of the cove to some sand and big rock's we saw were we were going to land after our abseil we also saw the rock climbing area  then we went to the abseiling area on the cliff and I was so scared cause I am afraid of heights I was shuffling around the cliff I thought I was going to fall  I couldn't breathe I wasn't even near the edge.

 We were then told what we were going to do we were split  into two groups .My group was doing rock climbing first and we had hazel and josh for our instructors when it was my turn to rock climb I  was happy and gave it ago I managed to get past the hard bit and then I abseiled down at first I bumped into a wall then I got the hang of it after that the time had come we had the abseil.

When we got to the cliff I was shaking in fear we had a practise abseil but I didn't do it I was so scared Then josh took me aside and had we sit  past a red line I had a safety line to make sure I didn't fall off I was really freaked out about how close I was to the edge .But after awhile it wasn't too bad and then I stopped being afraid and it wasn't that bad .  After awhile I  started to pace around the cliff freaking out about what I was doing it I couldn't decide .But after 20 minutes of pacing back and forward, we got told that only one more person could do it so we decided to let some else do it.

After we packed and walked back to the car .When we got there josh the instructor took me aside and said even sitting by the cliff was a step forward and that made me fell good .On the way back someone else vomited .when we got back I was so happy .  

week 6 term 2 reflection

This week we found out our sea kayaking and rafting groups. At first,  I was sure I would do rafting. But then  the teacher told me about sea kayaking and I changed my mind .It sounded so fantastic .I can't wait to go. We'll be kayaking around Brunner lake .


We also learnt our rock climbing and abseiling groups. We're going next week and I'm really freaked out. I fell like it will be interesting to do I am really afraid of heights so that will not help .But I'll try it and hope I don't die.
