By Isabella

Makaraka school  Gisborne has Just been to Whangara for their Yearly Camp. The Senior Year 5 and 6s went on the 20th - 22nd. They All Participated in a number of activities that made countless fun hours for the kids! The one that was the Best was the Cooks Cove walk, in Toygla bay.

They all started at 9:30AM. One by one, Single file The Students made their way to the 1st Lookout of Cooks Cove. Jessica Felt Tired and she wanted to go back down but knew it would be worth it! Ambar felt tired and sweaty. Soon  After They, all set off once again. Going through the Bushes, Long Grass, and many more small obstacles. Jessica felt like her legs were Gonna fall off. Levi felt refreshed. As they Kept going it got more breezy.

A little while later they made it to the 2nd lookout. Kaycee said “ The view was really misty and mysteries” All of the Students loved the View and the Adults took note of the View. Then they were off again. The Students then made it to the Rain Forest, They could all hear the Birds Chirp and The Trees leaves rustle in the low wind.

Half an hour later, they make it to the big field of choice. The adults decided to go to Hole in the wall first and have a look at it. The kids all went over the logs and looked at the Beautiful sea in all its glory.

When the kids made their way back they were exhausted but had a lot of fun. They were all making their way back, Sad to go but happy to get some rest. Overall all the Students and Adults had a good time even tho for some of the kids it was their 2nd - 5th time going. Kate felt relief to be down and see the vans. They all said goodbye to cooks cove, The Students then made their way in the cars and had a safe journey back.
