Back From Camp


Lots of photos will be loaded on the web album tomorrow for you to share with your family.

We had an EXCELLENT camp.


Great weatherGreat activitiesExcellent manners from all studentsand the BEST parents ever!


Everything went really well thanks to the hard work of all parents who did something to help out:

  • making delicious food for our first night
  • making home baked cookies for our afternoon tea
  • buying food for people on special diets
  • driving us all to camp
and

a very special thank you to the parents who stayed on camp with us and made our time so much fun.


We loved it.


We will be writing some stories and drawing some pictures about our experiences.  Watch out for them on our Achievements Blog.


Watch this space...


THANK YOUFOR a Fanatic Camp.



Big Camp Reminder


Big Camp Reminder for Children
Highlight the important things for you

Our camp is this Monday 26th March
Be at school with all your gear by 8:30 am

Bring your manners, a positive attitude and be ready to give new things a go.

We might stop at Rakia Gorge on the way to camp so you must be wearing clothing and shoes that you can walk in.

Have your school bag ready with your morning tea, lunch and a full water bottle.  Also have your rain jacket, extra top, hat and gloves with you.

When you get to school
Put your main bag and sleeping bag on the deck outside Room 4.
(Josh, Luke, Preston and Buster will organise everyone to load the trailer together – wait for their signal)

Hand in your biscuits or home baking to Annabel and Aria.

We have two trailers.  We should have enough room for you to bring your bike.  If you want to bring a bicycle to camp you can.  Line them up by the scooter rack outside Room 4.  We will take as many as we can fit in.

HAVE YOU HAD YOUR GEAR CHECKED?

Tomorrow
You MUST bring these things to be checked by the teacher.
  • Thermals
  • Hat
  • Gloves
  • Warm woollen top or fleece
  • Rain jacket
  • Good walking shoes

Search and Rescue

Today we learnt how to make a simple stretcher by using our clothing.


By sliding some poles into the arm holes of your jersey you can make an emergency stretcher to rescue an injured person.





Art Inspiration for Camp

Environmental Art Works by Andy Goldsworthy


All these art works are made form natural materials collected at the place where the art is created.


Wood, stones, leaves, flowers, ice, sand


Most of these art works are not made to last - they are made to slowly change and return to the environment by wind and water action.


Be inspired and create your own art on camp.




Ilam art last year.
