Borland Camp

Borland Camp - 10-13th November
 
On the 10th of November, the three year 10 classes of 2020 travelled to Borland Lodge to experience new learning opportunities outside of the classroom and can I say it was AWESOME. This camp went for four days and three nights and everyday we had to push and challenge ourselves, work together and overcome our fears. Here we got to embrace our surroundings of nature and wildlife, making us think about how lucky we were to be in such a beautiful country. Every activity we did, from caving and bush bashing to clay bird shooting and archery, was action packed and extremely fun. This camp taught and helped us develop many skills that we are sure to use in the future. I personally really enjoyed the overnight tramp to Green Lake.  We were very lucky to have such incredible weather making the tramp more enjoyable. Our camp was such an amazing experience and we would like to give a massive thank you to Mr Kotkamp for organising and putting a lot of effort into this trip and to all the parents and teacher helpers. Also, a big thanks to Mrs. Popplewell for the incredible meals. Without everyone this enjoyable experience wouldn’t have gone ahead, and I am sure that all the Year 10 students will have great memories of the Borland Lodge camp.
