Incredible camp at Mt Ruapehu

Hi bloggers a few weeks ago all the seniors went on camp the people who chose to go on camp had to pack a huge bag full of thermals and warm cloths I chose to and I packed a bag I just needed to borrow a ski jacket , ski pants, and water proof gloves I was ready. I woke up at 6.00  and got ready with all my cloths on and my bag  I was on my way to school and we had to park on the senior court then we had to go into the little junior  classes in our group colours mine was yellow with Maddison,Rael,Rio,Peter,Callum and Zion. Then we packed our things on the bus and said good bye to our parents and hoped on the bus while waving  good bye I was sad and happy but mostly sad I hoped into the bus and fell asleep on the way to Hamilton gardens we got to Hamilton gardens after a few hours and had a snack did a hunt and explored. The gardens were amazing and big I loved it when we were done we filled our bottles grabbed our bags and hopped back in the bus. Then we were on our way to a place where there were boards on important things to New Zealand we did another hunt on that. Then when we were done we walked to a park not so far away called the national park I loved the national park it was so fun and detailed. We all were done having our fun so the buses were parked by the side and we all hopped into it with our bags then me and my friends played a few hand games. We dove off to a school and played at there park for a while and had something to eat. We were playing then we had to go so we all ran to the car and I was the first one in. We arrived at the loge and got settled in and had some showers. We all got into our pj's and had dinner we explored a little before dinner but after dinner we went to bed.

We all got woken up by Ayvas mum and got into our thermal cloths we went to breakfast and got a chose between fruit and cereal or toast with your chose of toppings. When we finished we went into our room and put on our ski jacket and pants on along with all our other ski things. We hopped on the bus and the right bus with all our ski cloths and we were on our way I was sitting next to Ruta. When we arrived the bus driver told us where he would pick us up before we hopped off. We all went to a building not far where we got our skis, helmet and boots along with snowboards if we were doing snowboarding. I was skiing so I grabbed all my things and went to the back where everyone else was Julie was handing out passes for a gate down at happy valley the place we were skiing and snowboarding. So we went into our group and carried our skis down the little hill then we approached a elevator that toke us down to happy valley where we first put our skis on a ski rack and went sledding it was really fun I loved it and everyone else did to we all had a lot of turns. Everyone was finished and so we all went to have a snack at some benches not far from the sledding place we all had some sandwiches and yummy morning tea. After that we all lined up in our colour groups at happy valley to do our lessons we practised how to stop and just skid  a bit also taking little step and just practising. We did a lot of practising and enjoyed it we did a lot of falling over too and it was really fun. After our lessons we all had free time on the slopes it was very fun I was happy and proud because I was speeding down the slopes and I went down the slopes about twenty six times or more and it was a blast. When we had all our fun and we got tired we all had some lunch at the benches we took our gloves off and ate our yummy lunch. We finished up had a little bit more free time then went back up the elevator  and hopped on the bus. We were on our way to the parking lot where we switched buses then we went back to the loge everyone had a shower and got dressed out of there ski clothes after that everyone had a little free time in there rooms with there friends. Then had a chose between playing in the games room or playing spotlight. I chose spotlight and it was great I was really bad at hiding but it was fun everyone had fun and we were all so scared when the taggers came. after that we changed into our pj's and snoozed off to bed.

We woke up and did the very same as the last day except the lesson was shorter and  we went inside the big shop to have morning tea and lunch. I went on the chair lift a lot more and I was having a lot of fun with my friends we only did a couple more lessons then had the hole rest of the day of free time. It was getting a little boring cause it was snowing and it was like tiny rocks hitting my face. We finished and walked back to the bus then I fell asleep and we switched buses when we got back we had our shoes on and the boots were at the ski place. We had another shower and got dressed everyone in my cabin was all so happy that they didn't have there snow boots on or ever again we had chicken soup for a snack then we had dinner. We went to sleep and I did a little reading then fell asleep. We woke up and packed all our clothes and things when we were ready we put our bag into the bus and went on a trip to Huku falls. We saw the amazing water fall and explored a little more then stopped in Hamilton gardens to have a snack we danced and sang a little song to. We stopped in at AC baths the pools in Taupo and had a nice relaxing swim. It was a hot pools there was a swing a slide and floats.We had hot dogs and played games like me and my friends played who can hold there breath under water the longest. When we finished we got dressed and hoped back on the bus then we did a role check and got back really late with all our things.We all saw our parents and grabbed our things out of the bus and we all hugged our parents tight and left happily.
