Yr 9 Stars camp 2018 !

My highlights of camp were pretty much everything. I had fun with all of the activities maybe except for one which was the raft building because it wasn't as easy to do. One of my favourite highlights was the confidence course because it was fun rolling around in the mud and getting through the obstacles.

My lowlights were getting sick at camp and the raft building activity. I wasn't a big fan of the raft building because one of our star mentors didn't help us through it properly. Our group also didn't really work together on it.

I think to improve the camp for the next yr 9's would be to make it a little bit longer because it's a very fun camp and I wanted to stay longer as did other yr 9 students.

Reflection on sos

The tradition I chose was the 'Poi' I chose to research this because I've never known much about them and why they originally used. I found out that it was used by the men for strength and coordination needed for their wars. And by the women for flexibility in their wrists. This has managed to sustain in our society today used in kapa haka performances. When I presented I felt like i did a good job. I think it would've been better if I had props to show the class instead of using my hands.
