Bivouac on Kawau Island
Bivouac making was so much fun! I loved it so much because we got all wet when it was tested. We found a really good place to collect dead ferns. It was a tight squeeze in the bivouac but it was still a good experience. S.B
My Mansion House Experience
This historical place is huge and has every room you could think of.
On the trip there on a ferry we were all so excited.This place holds so many good memories.I go over to Mansion House most holidays because I have a caravan onshore.

One of the things I liked was the obstacle-water confidence course. It was fun and very yucky when I fell in.I kind of like yucky things. The secone thing I liked was the flying fox.I also enjoyed hourse riding as well. I hated the burning marshmellows.I had so much fun.
Sonshine Ranch
First I did horses riding. I then did the flying fox. I was high up. I felt I was flying. I did a rope swing .I saw a pond a littel one.That was the water confidence. I was so good I did everything without getting wet until I had to fall off the water wheel.

Kayaking
On the 29th March we went kayaking. We got to pick our kayak. I picked a yellow one.I am not a really good kayaker on my own.I got stuck lots of times.When we went under a pole I got stuck and I could not get back on my seat. At the end we played a game in kayaks. It was fun.I got tagged a few times.At the end of the session I got pulled out of the water.I really thought it was fun.I came 2nd in one race. I was happy.VH
