YEAR 6 CAMP

Terrific Tallebudgera! The Year 6 camp for 2019 was awesome! We completed many miraculous activities and conquered many of our fears through challenge by choice. 

Fling! Suddenly, we were flying after being hauled over 20 metres into the air! We had a brief moment to take in the view of the beach before pulling the blue ball that launched us!  Next, we felt the ocean breeze blowing our hair as we walked towards the gorgeous Tallebudgera beach.  Bodacious body-boarding was a favourite activity of many of the Year 6 campers.  The ocean waters were a bit chilly however, the tight bodysuits kept us warm, and even caught the odd fish! Haha!

Abseiling was a daunting adventure, the tight rope guided us safely to the ground even though a lot of us were nervous taking that first step over the edge.  Then we were attached to the “Quick Jump” machine and the nerves really increased! Some of us gained an audience of other beach goers which helped our bravery! 3,2,1 JUMP! Just like James Bond!

Lots of other activities like, Catapults, Rock Climbing, Archery, The Quiz Night and the Evasion Games allowed firm friendships and work as a team. Our Beach Liturgy was a time of prayer and reflection, and time for us to realise us that although our remaining Primary School days are only a few, we will all end up in the “Hall of Fame”!

Thank you to our spectacular teachers we are so grateful for your guidance along the way.  Overall, this was an amazing time that allowed us to explore opportunities, challenge fears and have an awesome time with our primary school friends before the next great adventure of High School!
