Years 6 camp recount

WALT: Summarise a week long experience into a recount.

This story is all about years 6 campers. We went to Camp Bentzon on Kawau Island. Kawau Island is the most beautiful place I have seen in the North Island

in my life. Everyone was very excited and very happy about going to camp.

There were four different groups and they were Bentzon, Mansion,Kawau and Catz. In each group there was a’s and b’s, each group had two leaders, a girl and a boy. I was in Bentzon A and in my group my leaders were Talita and Hosea. Some of my favorite subject on Camp Bentzon was kayaking, raft building and confidence course.

The first thing, we did was sailing and  my partner was Talita. First when Talita and I got into the water, I was scared. When we came back from the sailing it was morning tea and we had some cookies. Our next activity was the confidence course, at confidence course we needed to be as dry as we could.

Before we had dinner each group needed to set tables everyday. First night we watched camp movies.On second night we played spotlight and it was a lot of fun. It was the best night in my life. The next night it was the concert night and bentzon performed school ambassadors. We came second with catz on the concert night. mansion came first and kawau came third.

On the last day, Mr Goodwin said, we were playing volleyball. It was Bentzon A vs Mansion A. Then we played, bush baseball, then touch and swimming. Then

we packed up our suitcases and bags and then we put them in a room. We waited for the ferry to come and we stopped at the sandspit and we unloaded our bags and suitcases from the ferry. Then we put our gear on the bus and we had our yummy lunch. After we had our lunch, we jumped on the bus and when everyone got on the bus. Everyone was very tired. We got to school and we unloaded the bags and suitcase from the bus. Everyone took their bags and suitcases and went home.   

This week we are writing our camp recount. I hope in the future I can write more recount like this.

Trade and enterprise is about our business groups. Our goal is to take as many orders we can to make money for our product.  We have different business groups with different product that we are selling. If people walk by our mission is to make them feel like they need this product. Trade and enterprise is also known as our topic for term three.

Years 5 and 6 are learning about trade and enterprise and how to use money. The teachers are give us money, for example Mr g\Goodwin give me 1 pt and 50 pieces 1 pt like $1.00 and 50 pieces like 50 cents and we have our own internet bank then after school or at lunch time we can bank our pt and pieces and we got

bank teller. The teacher don’t always give us cash, they put it in our bank.

There are many business group there are home ware, toys, music, custom stationery, kitchen and jewellery. I'm in home ware,  in our group there are 5 people in our group and we are making skull candles and orange candles.

The big skull candles is 1 pt and the small skull candles is 50 pieces and the orange candle is 50 pieces and

if you buy the big skull candles you get buy 1 get 1 free.

when we are at the trade fair we split up 3 people stay and wait for people to order 1 of us go to order and buy

some food,loom headphone or other thing. The people go and order, they have 15 minutes to buy or order. When

it’s 15 minutes and we switch again. When we got our product the teacher take out from our internet bank.
