Santa is coming

I can't wait for Christmas
It's finally here
It's exciting to see Santa 

With his white locks of hair
Image result for santa clipart
A sparkle in his eye
A big bright red nose
Bells that go jingle

A hearty, HO HO HO!!

He comes down the chimney
With a sack on his back
The candles are lit dimly
The presents are stacked

Gift wrap will be scattered everywhere
But just for one day, 
No one will care!

Camp at Carey Park

This year CAMP was so amazing, especially doing all the activities. When we first arrived at CAREY PARK I was really happy and excited, well it didn't look like what I imagined it would look like BUT it did look better than my imagination. The first thing we did was go to our cabins, know all the rules, get settled and eat lunch. After all of that we went BUSH WALKING. Bush walking was very long but I did not expect it to be very long, it was very muddy, slippery, high and native. When it came to campfire night we got split into two groups - group 1 and group 2. Group 2 had the dynamite people and got a good night fright by Mr Robinson and some parent helpers and teachers. My favorite day was FRIDAY because we got to do all the WATER ACTIVITIES which was water games rocky and painful, raft building scary cause a eel was watching us and kayaking getting wet, falling in and getting to rope swing into the water hole. Other activities were archery, air rifles, confidence course, flying fox, outdoor cooking, rock climbing and last of all rope maze. Dinner was real DELICIOUS, lunch was healthy, free time awesome, supper tiring and weather blistering hot. Skit night was full of energy, laughter and family members. Thursday night was red moon also.  But then it came to friday so I had to make the most of it I was tired and sad because I just made a new friend named JOEL and he was really FUN, enthusiastic and was a really KIND man to be around. But OMG I was shocked to hear Joel's laugh it was a crack up. It also WOWED me to see how fast the week had gone but  I have to admit I really did MISS my whole FAMILY. But after all it was worth paying and it was one of the best primary experiences of my life TO BE HONEST. As we were on our trip back to school I was really tired so I fell asleep on the bus  and then woke up to see we were half way on the motorway. And now I am back at school learning and making the most of the rest of this year.
