We did a range of activities including swimming, bivouac building, a burma trail and sandcastle making. It was fantastic fun and a great way to get to know each other at the beginning of the year.
One of the reasons we were doing this trip was because our school is part of the Kids Restore the Kepler Project which aims to bring back birdlife to the Kepler area. As part of this we set up some tracking tunnels to see what creatures were crawling around at night. The good news is that there weren't too many pests. Only two mice were tracked! The bad news is that there weren't any good tracks such as wetas.
We also did a presents absence test for the birds we could here at seven o'clock in the morning. Were heard a few tomtits, a robin and a parakeet but not as much as we had expected. It's a good thing that we are part of this project!
The camp was great fun and we would recommend it for all!
