Highlights of camp

My highlights for camp was the Confidence course because I liked doing the course an going in the mud.
I also liked the cargo net where we have to climb on the top of the net and then safely come back down. And also our items I liked it because most of the year nines were there and we all came together as 3/4

At today social studies period we had to do a presentation about a Ms Robertson mum. She told us how life was in Samoa an how it was compared to New Zealand. She first came to New Zealand when she was 18, now shes 73 years old. The reason is to why she came in New Zealand was because she could get a better life. She came to New Zealand to lift her family up so she can have a pakeha house instead of a Samoan house.  She came so she can work and send some money back an because she was thinking about his future grandchildren and there life.
