Camp Toonallook!

My class recently went to school camp near Gippsland. As we arrived we had lunch and went into a game. The target was to find the letters to which place they were at. Me and my friend Oscar got 11. We came 3rd place in our class. We learnt a ball game. It was called king ball. It was basically a version of 4 square but a bit different. There were four tanks and they were your squares. Your aim was to get to king. The ball could only bounce one before you had to hit it. But if you hit it up to yourself you could hit it two more times and take two more bounces. At night before we went to bed we played a game. It was called the shoe game. It was really fun. What you had to do was sit on a cushion and throw a shoe to hit a drink bottle. It had many made up rules which made it more fun. Our name was jazz’s jellybeans. Me and some of the other boys wanted it to be my name is Gus. There is a long story behind that.

On the second day we went to see the water police. They are like a water ambulance so if you get hurt or your boat is on fire they will help you. We were with them for two hours but then we went on a bike ride in the morning. At this point I was getting eating alive by the mosquitos. We rode around our campsite and around some of the lake. Then we had morning tea. Our campsite cook made amazing scones. Then we went kayaking. When we went kayaking we found lots of jellyfish. We rode around the lake then played in the water. We tried to get around 5 or 6 people on a two person kayak. That didn’t work well since we mostly capsized very time we tried. When we got back we packed up our stuff then we walked a kilometre on two The our camping area. We set up our tents then ate deli our hamburgers. Then we played a game. It was you picked a Disney character then you had to guess other peoples. If someone got yours you would join there team. Me and my partner got out early but it was fun to watch everybody else get guessed. At night we went to where we saw the water police and played and watched the sun go down. 

When we got back we brushed our teeth went to the bathroom then went to bed. When we woke up we had toasted sandwiches for breakfast. They were so good. Then we packed up put our things back on the trailer and went to Raymond island. My group had bike riding first we rode around the streets then we went looking at all the koalas. My group found around 30 koalas it was pretty cool. Then we went fishing for 3 hours! Now let’s say it now and only now. We didn’t find anything! That wasn’t the best thing we did but we were trying to catch jellyfish which didn’t really work but I nearly caught one but it dropped. Then when we got back which was pretty late in the afternoon so we played king ball then went to dinner. We played a bit more then josh our leader read us a story. 

Now our story nearly comes to an end but not without when woke up at 5:30 to watch the sunrise and we had the Toonallook  challenge. The year 11s made a course for us to beat. We lost to the afterburners who are the other team. Then we had lunch and head home. I loved Toonalook so much see you in May next year!
