Syriah Year 6 Camp - Kawau Island


Guess what? Last week, the year 6’s were so lucky to go to Kawau Island. When we got there Peter and Erin told as some safety rules so when there’s an emergency we have to go to the volleyball court.

When that was finished we went hiking. It took forever and when we got to our destination  on the top of the hill, it was the longest walk I’d ever been on. After that I felt good about myself. But walking down the hill was the worst because it was so slippery and some of us slipped.

The first activity we did was kayaking.  We kayaked two kilometers.I kept on going into the trees.  We saw a birds on the tree above the water looking in the water to see if it could see a fish for its breakfast. When we were coming back to camp, it was raining and all of us were so so cold we got goosebumps. The waves were so big I almost fell out of my kayak.

The activities we go to do sailing, kayaking, abseiling, swimming on the pontoon with life jackets, bivouac, bruma trail, it was fun doing all the activities. The one I liked the most was the burma trail.

When Mr Somerville  said “do we want to hear the good news or bad news?” we all said “bad news!” and he said the ferry sunk and we have to stay there for another day. i didn't like that because I wanted to go home. Then he told us the good news and it was that the ferry will be here in 5 minutes I was so happy.

Lost while camping

One day we went camping in the forest and we got lost. By the way my name is Shaniah and I have 2 sisters and 1 brother including me. My sisters names are and Angela KC. My brothers name is Wayne. My Mums name is Ana and my Dad's name is Jayden.

We were all feeling really Angry, Hungry and Tired. The reason why we were getting Angry, Hungry and Tired it’s because we were lost. We all had the same idea. Our idea was to put sticks on the ground and brake of a branch from a tree. That is how we know that we’ve been there. Because there were heaps of paths we needed to take. There was 5 paths we needed to take.

We had a map but the next day we looked and the map was gone. We asked each other did you take the map and everyone said no. But hours later in the afternoon Zane admitted it. He said I kick the map in the river but when he told us we were really angry with him. The only thing he said was the map was useless anyways.

But lucky we had a Flare Gun but we only had 3 rounds left. But there was 5 Flare Gun’s left. We almost got 1 each but only if there was 1 more Flare Gun.


But a few hours later we were saved from people and we never ever went back there again. But the people who saved us they went back there and they got lost just like us. But they never survived because they were Angry, Hungry and tired.
