New Leaders for 2008

Posted by Emily on 26th November 2007

Every year our school votes 2 school Captains but before all that happens they have to apply to become either a Student Executive, Peer Mediator or both!

So many applicants so little time! Eventually a decision was made on who would move on to  the next stage…. INTERVIEWS!  Now interviews were 1 of the hardest parts of the long road to being school captain, There are 4 adults and 2 of this years leaders they were Mrs Knight , Ms Leonard , Ms Harrison and Mrs Gribert, a parent. The 2 leaders were Me and Yilmaz. We went through alot of yr5’s who really want to be a school leader, it was very tiring but very good experience. Today we are going to find out who is going to make it to the next stage …. THE SPEECHES!!!

Paradise or Hell ?

Posted by Emily on 9th November 2007

Camping, Paradise or Hell ? Well, some think that Camping is sleeping in the bush in tents while others think that Camp is sleeping in your backyard, but the Camp I went to is more fun…

At the beginning of the school week Stage 3 went to an amazing place at it was…   Camp!!, The Camp site was called Rethane. So many activities so little time only 3 days of fun filled with excitement. I think it should at least be about a week. Any way we fit in 6 activities and they were Canoeing , River Ride, Indoor rock climbing, pool rafting and best of all.. WATERSLIDE!!!  We did all this with the help of our instructors Earl, Tim Tam, Angelo and Rachel. Canoeing was really fun even though I am extremely scared of the ocean, the funniest moment was when 1 of our canoes capzised… TWICE!. The River Ride was really relaxing all you did was sit down and listen to what your instructor says about the National park. Indoor Rock climbing was fantastic! You had to wear giant harnesses and they had different colours to represent the level of difficult, I almost made it to the top! Doing pool rafting was fun! You make a raft and race it in the swimming pool, lots of fun     :)         All of those activities were great but the best out of the activities would have to be The Waterslide!! You can go with a partner or by yourself but you get more screams if you go with a friend, the best part of the Waterslide is when you go down a smaller slide and go even faster!! At the end water splashes into your face! It’s so cool! Sadly it had to end      :(           But paying $220 for Camp was totally worth it.
