The final day at camp Respect 2012 had finally come. The year 7 and 8's went to the Lagoon in Panmure. The only thing I was looking forward to was the bombing pool. I just love bombing. Staples, V-Bombs and Gorilla. I love doing bombs.

              I was on the diving board, and I jumped off. I was doing a v-bomb. I didn't really succeed because I didn't curve my body enough so I just done staples for the rest of the day.

CAMP CONCERT!!!

This is the time where all our dance practice came to use. THE CAMP CONCERT!!! For our fantastic performance, my team,Team Respect, was dancing to the jum jam song ‘Superstar’.

The boys were acting like girls and pretending to walk down a catwalk. We had to do our best girly poses. We had practiced and practiced for ages and ages. Finally we got it right on the night. We had to get a few tips off the real girls though. Three girls sung a lullaby and the other girls performed a dance.

There we were, sitting on the ground at the beginning of the night. Guess what? OUR TEAM WENT FIRST!!!! I was like yeah! I said that so that we could just get it out of the way. I was excited and nervous at the same time. But my leader just said “we can do it”.

The girls item was first. The lullaby was up first then the girls dance. After those I said, “here we go”. The leader was first to go out and I was first. Boy after boy. We just wouldn’t stop posing. I thought we were actual girls. But we weren’t.

At the end of the night the judges added up their scores. In 6th place was my brothers team (Kayde) The Respect Squad. 5th was the Respectablez. 4th place my team, Team Respect!! 3rd  were the Respectorz. Second place was The Respectronics. FIRST PLACE.......... The RESPECT CREW.

Even though I came 4th I still was happy because I beat my older brother. So that was cool. I can’t wait till next year.

Final Day At Camp 2012.

WHOA!!!!!! There we were at The Lagoon in Panmure when THE VODAFONE WARRIORS walk right through the doors. I was so stocked that they came. I know when you go to the games and you see them, but this was different. You got to see them up close. While they were swimming around, we were chanting Warriors, Warriors, Warriors. It was so COOL.


I didn’t want to get in the pool because it was too cold. But I really wanted to meet the Warriors. So then I just took off my shirt then jumped in the pool. Even though I was freezing cold, I was still stocked to meet them.

Once they got out of the pool, we started to do the haka for them. After we finished the haka, the halfback Shaun Johnson and winger Manu Vatuvei started to crack up laughing. So after the Warriors left, I jumped straight out of the pool. Freezing cold I quickly done star jumps to get warm. But since it was a hot day, I was dried in about ten minutes.

I was so stocked to see the Warriors on the final day of camp. It was so COOL!!!!

First Day Of Camp 2012

YEAH!!! Camp. I couldn’t wait for this day to come. I just love school camp. My teams name is Team Respect. Our leaders are Seini Mino and Cruz.

There’s sleeping out side. That’s my favorite thing to do at camp. I never get to do that at my house. There is cooking eggs like your in the wild. Because I always cook mine in a pan. But we are only stating camp.

We also played Captains Ship, Stomp the balloon and my favorite, the egg toss. My partner was Cruz. We went as far as ten metres. But that wasn’t a good sign for me. He chucked it hard as. Then....... CRACK!!! The egg splattered on my hand then I tasted some raw egg it my mouth. It was revolting. I almost vomited right next to my shoe. That’s how bad it was. I just washed it off.

“Captains Ship” Mr Harris yelled. After the egg toss we played the good old game, Captains Ship. It was down to me and Cruz. Mr Harris yelled out “Starboard”! I was so surprised to be the last person. Then he said, “Welcome to the crew meharty”. So I said “Thank You”. And that was the end of those games.

Even though it has only been the first day, It has been heaps of fun. I CAN”T WAIT FOR DAY 2!!!
