Wellington camp 2018

  Travell day
On Sunday Room 4 went along the coast of the North Island in a huge bus that had an amazing talented driver named Don he struggled through some straights where it was really windy in some spots where the bus driver was having to slow down just in case we tipped we had John Redpath and Simon Hustler in the chase vehicle behind the bus once we were through the foreraters we arrived in Wairoa for a quick toilet stop for most of us because we had to all quickly go.
Next we shoot through into Napier for a run and some lunch that we had. We explored all around where we had eaten our lunch and all the history and famous people that had been there. Also there was a sun ball that it had instructions on what you had to do. Miss Dods had brought movies that we watched going through the whindy parts so we didn’t get sick and so we weren’t to loud. We also stopped in at Dannevirke for a petrol stop and to go toilet in mcdonalds. Then after our long trip to our retreat it was called Silverstream Retreat. Once we got into our base I put my bags on the bottom bunk there were 3 bunk beds in each room so Hohepa, Charlie B and I had a bunk bed each. The chefs were incredible cooking amazing meals for us all first we had lasagna the first night that was spectacular.



Day 1:
We woke up with a noke noke it was Mr Knight so we got up got dressed went into our meeting place in the front with our shoes on ready to run with Carole Redpath we ran around the retreat. Down the hill and to a field about 1 minute away but we did some activities that warmed us up to get ready for the day. Some of us had showers. Then we went to the dining room on display for breakfast there was Coco Pops, Rice Bubbles, WeetBix, Muesli and toast with all the toppings like Honey, Marmite, peanut butter and different jams. Next we wander off back to our base. Once we got to Parliament we saw our educator his name was William Davies he told us to put our bags in a lock up cage so we could sit in the seats and I ended up being the Prime Minister but in the pretend debating chamber. Which I thought was pretty cool as it is the same as the real debating chamber same carpet but not the same chairs when we went in to the real chamber we didn’t get to sit in there chairs I
