 What it feels to learn in 2020

In the year 2020, there had been many cases and many negative experiences, in my opinion I think this has been the worst year i've ever experienced, but in this story I will be talking about what happened during 2020, and people were losing their jobs because of the virus that 2020 was the worst year for me because covid19/coronavirus and people were losing their job and people were buying heaps of stuff so people ran out of a lot of stuff. People also could not go on flight but if they did they had to have two week.


In the first week of lockdown nothing was really happening but people were panic buying, as soon as I heard that there was online schooling I knew I had to get ready for everything, we had to get our devices, books and other stuff. Every morning I always have to wake up and get ready for online schooling, which was really difficult because I had to set up the place I'm gonna be sitting in.


2 weeks later after lockdown When i got to school everyone started getting excited because they haven't seen their friends in 2 weeks and even though Covid 19 was still spreading around the world all of us didn't care about it… which was rule breaking but I just ignored it. After term 1 another lockdown accrued which means i had to do it all over again.

Camp Raglan

 On Monday 21st of september when camp started the seiners had a trip to camp raglan for two hours. I was sitting next to rudolph. And I was sitting in front of Maria and ana. There was a toilet stop in the gas station. When we made it, everyone had a meeting in the hall. But first we put all of our bags in the hall. When we finished having a meeting all of the kids went to go set up their dorms /beds. Then we all went for a walk to the beach. When Miss Ashley said NOT TO GO IN THE BEACH all the kids went to the beach. Me and my friend Davlyn were the last one to go to the beach. No one listened to Miss Ashley when she said NOT TO GO. then we all went for dinner. When some kids were awake at night time teachers had to go tell them off or move dorms. On the first day of camp a window in the bathroom was already broken. 


Then on Tuesday everyone had to wake up around 7:00 so everyone could go for a beach walk or wait and set up the tables for breakfast. After breakfast all of the kids and teachers went for a meeting. There were 3 groups. 1 group did orienteering and the other group went for kayaking then the last group went for sports. When i had lunch and dinner everyone had a movie night. Miss Ashley called a meeting cause on the first two days most of the kids weren't listening. Stuff was broken, kids were having a fight and then people were sad. When i had lunch i was sitting with davlyn, ehthoo, mathew, wesley and kymani. 



Then on wednesday in the morning everyone had breakfast then the 3 groups went for their orientation, rock climbing, and paddling. For lunch on wednesday we had pasta cake and water. After lunch everyone went to play at the pools, gym and the park. The girls had a party because it was Lily's birthday. And everyone had to sleep early because some boys had a fight. 

On thursday we were supposed to go on a beach walk, and have outside games. But then it was raining the whole entire way. So the only activities we were allowed to do was rock climbing, sports in the gym and fiafia show. Heaps of boys were crying because they were gonna go back home. We were playing team games and activities. Everyone was supposed to sleep at 9:00 clock, but sleep at 11:00 o’clock. And we had marshmallows.

On friday some kids went for a beach walk. Then the other kids were cleaning up their dorms. After breakfast everyone went outside. Then we all had hot dogs for lunch after we had lunch, kids were packing up their bags and went back home. When we had 2 hours back home people were unpacking their bags and going to the hall.

camp

 School camp is a great way for kids to take a break from technology and school. It is better to go to camp so you can build better relationships and get new friends and also you can bond more with your friends. They also give you a lot of food and it is very yummy. They also give you desert. They also take you on fun activities. On the bus we were allowed to bring some lollies to eat on the bus or to eat at the camp.


When you go camping you are not allowed to bring any electronics to camp only the adults can, so that means you can have a break from all the social media and other games. When you have no electronics you have to go to whoever you want to talk to and talk face to face. You also get to meet new people and go on heaps of walks like to the beach walks, night walks and bush walks, they also get to play around with your friends and get to make new friends. 


They give you some very yummy food like hot dogs, nachos and other food but the desert is yummy. They give you stuff like chocolate fudge and chocolate mousse and it is for free. Best of all it the activities there are some very call activities like archery, air rifles and kayaking. But the worst thing that can happen is it will rain on the day when all the fun stuff will happen. That's what happened to my camp. We missed out on air rifles and archery. So when it rained we had to stay inside but we got to watch movies and listen to music and do inside activities. We also got to roast some marshmallows in the fire and then we got to eat it but first we needed to go outside and get some sticks so we could put the marshmallows on it so we don’t burn ourselves.


For some people it is their first time in their own cabins or dorms but you have to bring your own blankets and pillows you were allowed to bring sleeping bags. Before we went to sleep we got to eat some lollies we brang from home or we were allowed to talk. We had to get in bed at a certain time then you're allowed to talk then you have to go to sleep. 


On some activities it said no go, go or wait, no go means you are not allowed to go there. Go means you are allowed to go at any time and wait means you need to wait for an adult to come and let you go. 


I think camp is good for kids because they get a break from so many things and they also get to make new friends and meet new people and your bond with your old friends will get stronger and you can learn new things and do new things, for example I learnt that not all the jellyfish will sting you.
