Noho Marae Trip

CAMP!!!

Last week, Te Wao Nui o Tane children left for a four day and three night camp! We stayed at Micamp which is located in Mission Bay, Taupo. We had such an amazing time challenging ourselves to try things that scared us. Ask us some questions on our blog or out in the playground (we love talking about camp)!

Look at all of our bags!!!

Here is a photo of the field with Lake Taupo in the background.

This is where we did our kayaking.

Some of us even snuck in a swim in the lake!

This was where most of us slept (and dried our clothes).

This is a picture of the scary activities! High ropes, rock climbing, abseiling, and the flying fox. Lots of us screamed our heads off while we were having a go at these.

If the children are about 1.5m tall, how high do you think the tower is?

Camp Work Groups

This week, we found out which children from Te Wao Nui o Tane would be in our camp work groups. There was a lot of excitement and discussion when the groups were announced.
Now we're starting to work together in these groups in the afternoons. We hope to get to know and understand more each about each other.

             

This is one of the activities we participated in. We had to learn how to communicate with each other and work together as a team.

Camp Cabin Choices

Today in Room 1, the children made several VERY important choices. They thought long and hard about who they wanted in their camp cabin.

                                  

Ask your child who they requested and why.
