TERM 3

CAMP This years camp was at Willow Park in Eastern Beach on The 14 September to 16 September.A very successful camp even though the weather wasn't the best.

The Extreme Edge gave a challenge to the climbers. The old classroom at Howick Village was where we had a lesson from the olden days.    As it was Conservation Week we helped clean up Eastern Beach. We collected 9 bags of rubbish.

We had a good look around the Howick Historical Village. The early morning fitness run was up the steps near the camp.
