2019 Hanmer Springs Camp

Hanmer Springs camp

                  This year we had my first camp experience at Hanmer Springs, It took about 3 hours to get there and back. Once we got to the camp we started unpacking our stuff and ate lunch, following that we went into groups and started our activities, our first activity started at 1 O'clock and we went mountain biking, we learned how to operate the bikes and then we rode down the road to the biking path, we were there for 2 hours 30 minutes and then we went back to camp. We only had 1 activity on the first day but the next day we would have 3. Once we got back we got dressed in out togs and went to the Hanmer springs hot pools, we had a lot of fun there and we were there for about 3 hours. When we returned we had spaghetti for dinner and we did a competitive quiz in teams, then we went to bed.

                  The next day we had breakfast and started our other activities, including orienteering, walking up conical hill, and tree climbing. For orienteering we had to find markers around the forest trail and write them down, the team with the most points won. For conical hill we walked up and down the hill, it took about 1 hour in total, and then we went to the lolly shop with each person carrying 5 dollars. Tree climbing was quite hard even though I made it to the top of both trees. And on the last day we went to the cemetery and walked down a short trail, my experience at Hanmer Springs was good and I know other people also had fun.
