Camp Bentzon Top 5 Tips: 2019




Dear future campers, Camp Bentzon is one of the best things you do in Year 6. Camp Bentzon is a place where future campers, schools, adults and teachers visit. They stay there three nights and four days. There are lots of fun and experimenting tasks and rotations to do in Camp Bentzon, Kawau Island. There are Four to Five different rotations around the day that you compete in and verse another team. At the end of the day you go have lots of fun, swimming, Jumping of the wharf and jumping of the pontoon / platform. Have an experimenting time at Camp Bentzon, Kawau Island! 




My first tip I’m gonna tell you guys about is taking your time on “Killer Hill” 

All the Camp groups had a talk about Killer Hill. I knew it looked really tiring because how I looked up it looked really scary when I saw all the branches, trees and stuff it looked really scary if you fall off Killer Hill. So the first thing is to not run up the first day’s Killer Hill because the first day’s Killer Hill is really tiring you wouldn’t want to do it. Why I’m telling you not to run up it, it’s because you can get an accident or a injury or even damage on your body, because if you fall down you might roll down and bang yourself on rocks, trees, branches and different kinds of dangerous stuff make sure to walk carefully up Killer Hill. You may need to have enough water to hydrate yourself again and carry on.


My second tip is about bedtime.

The Camp groups have the same time they go sleep 8:30pm, 9:00pm and 10:00pm we went sleep at 10:00pm or near 10:00pm because we were watching a movie that night and we went sleep and we went sleep at around 10:00pm because of concert night. The tip is to go sleep when your teacher gives your last goodnight because if you don’t go to sleep at the last goodnight they give you, you might not have enough energy to run up Killer Hill when you wake up.



My third tip is about the showers

Make sure you bring shampoo and soap to wash yourself in the showers. Make sure that boys only get two minutes and girls get four Minutes. Make sure to bring your shampoo and soap because you don’t wanna go walking and running around smelling like normal water with putting on shampoo and soap on because you obviously wouldn’t like it when your walking around with your friends and they saying you stink.

My fourth tip is to right clothes for activities.

Make sure to wear the right clothes for activities because if you go to swimming and you wear likes jean, t-shirt, hard shorts to take off, it may take you lots of minutes to take off. Make sure at concourse you wear the right clothes not like, jeans, swimming togs or anything like that or else you might fall down because it might be to hard to pass. I forgot this thing but you need to hold to ropes and stand on one and balance of it. You would wanna wear the right clothes because if you don’t and your wearing a hard jumper that you can’t take off or even jeans your legs cant move around properly.



My fifth tip is about breakfast, lunch and dinner.

When you finish Killer Hill you have a choice of brushing your teeth before or after because if you don’t brush your teeth at all your breath is go

nna smell disgusting. I would rather brush my teeth after I finish because once you finish your breakfast when you already brushed your teeth, you will have stuff sticked into your teeth. Make sure your whole group sits up on the table smiling waiting for the other groups to come. Make sure your whole group sits up and the teachers will pick you first!










Task Description: Today I finished my task as Camp Bentzon Top 5 Tips so on Tuesday November the 18th Year 6 Camp Groups went to Camp Bentzon, Kawau Island. We had lots of fun there here is where I show all my Top 5 Tips for the Future Camp Leaders and Group! Enjoy!

Athletics Day Recount: November 8th 2019






Athletics Day Recount.














Topic: Athletics Day


Purpose: Explaining what happened in Athletics day.





Audience: The Audience is the people who didn’t come to Athletics Day.














On Friday Morning November 8th Pt England School had to wear there house colours.. If you don’t know what house colours are.. Well there’s this thing called Cross Country that all the years run on the field around the gate and around like nearly everything. So Cross Country is something for running that we have to be in our house colours for like Red ( Tu Auere ) Blue ( Hine Moana ) Yellow ( Hikianalia ) Green ( Hokulea ) so those are the colors everyone is set in a random colour but you can’t be a different towards your siblings.






On November the 8th we had our Athletics day I wasn’t so sure if I wanted to do it but.. It went out good that I found out some of my friends was in my group.









High Jump.





So first of all I’m gonna talk about High jump ( I didn’t do High Jump first ) But yeah High Jump I wasn’t so serious if I wanted to run from the right all the way over the top of the poll. I got really nervo
us if I was gonna break my back. So I went and i didn’t do it but still at least I got a turn. Everyone from the boys group all started attending to where I was because they didn’t make it either.. But there was Four boys left Ozzy, Osa, Melzalone ( Mel ) and John! Mel went but he didn’t make it but congratulation on getting ????place! Next was Osa he didn’t so sure make it but still Congratulation on getting ???? place to! Next was John he nearly did it but he still got ????? Place Wow! Now it was down to Ozzy he DID it and got ???????? WOWW!






So the places for High Jump today are…. In First place…. Dun dun dun! OZZY!!! In Second Place….. John!! And in third place with two winners… Melzalone and Osa!!







Sprint.





Next we had Morning Tea to eat our Lunch! So we all ate our lunch and went to go play outside! After that it was time we had to go back to the court..





NOO! But I was fine with going to Sprint so at first we all had to go to walk to Sprint Section.. We saw Mr Burt he was the leader for Sprinting.. So first of all he said first group up! So the first group got up technically I was in there but friend Ozzy was in there he was in the Sixth lane and I was in the Seventh when Mr Burt said on your mask than he clapped his clapper and they started running as soon as I saw Ozzy run everyone was alright but I looked at Ozzy and I got so shocked when I saw him roll down and I tried beating him but he still. Beat me.. Uh oh! So when the race finished Ozzy yelled “Miss! There’s a hole down the Sixth lane” I was so shocked that Warus was in the Sixth lane he started running and everyone was alright running straight and stuff but I saw Warus going straight until I saw his foot go down.. It was my turn Mr Burt said on your mask and CLAPPED the CLAPPER! We all started running I got really scared because I didn’t know where the hole was until I saw it! I jumped over the hole I was lucky! Phew! That was the story of Sprint.








Dodgeball.





Dodgeball was one of the first things I did.. If you don’t know what Dodgeball is it’s like there’s a person that’s holding the ball beware not to get hit by the ball of his so if you get hit than your automatically out and than you have to go sit outside with the Teacher or Coach your with. Our group played Dodgeball and first up was Hikianalia and Hokulea they had a war so all the people from Hikianalia and Hokulea went on there Chest and than the Coach / Teacher said 3! 2! 1! Go! So all from Yellow and Green ran to get any ball and started throwing it at each other! And trying to get people out! After that I don’t remember who won but it was Tu Auere and Hine Moana gonna verse each other! Uh Oh! We went on our chests and started getting people out! I got some people out and actually I was nearly one of the Last number #1 Contender left but I wasn’t I believe Tj was.







Next Tu Auere and Hine Moana teamed up and Hokulea and Hikianalia teamed up and we had a battle everyone went on there chests and they all starting getting people out of the battle, Well I wasn’t in the top 10 overall I think I was in like Thirteen or between Twenty. I don’t know I wasn’t so good as well as before how I was getting people out but on Hikianalia and Hokulea there were lots of good people from Dodgeball like, Tonga, Melzalone, Osa and lots and lots of other good people.






Conclusion!





Conclusion: My favourite part of Athletics day was doing lots of cool stuff! My favourite Activities of the day were High Jump, Sprint and Dodgeball those were really inspiration! Thats why I picked it to write about it! Thank yous: I would to Thank the people who helped us in Athletics day and got our groups ready to start other Activities and play on! I would like to thank the Teachers for getting us organized for Athletics, and Thanks to the parents for competing in running with the Students at Point England School and the Teachers running with them. Special Thanks to Miss Vaafusuaga and the Teachers for getting the stuff ready in the morning for us Point England to interact with in Athletics.
