Recently we went to High Africa for our Grade 5 camp. We had a lot of fun and I’m going to share it with you , When we first got there the first thing I saw was the green grass and the beautiful flowers , I was really exited and when we went into our dorms cause we got to sleep on bunk beds . We tried our best to time every second of unpacking and organizing so wouldn't be late for our activities....We were late for our activities everyday but we still did them , The first activity we did was dancing to a lot of different songs the camp instructors made up one was called “The Penguin Dance” And we sang that song the whole time we were at camp , the food was good too like promised .....But on the very second day of camp We had this activity called “The Leap Of Faith” to be honest it wasn’t as high as I thought it was going to be ... So I did it , there was many moments where I said to my self “Nope” but then I did it (in a storm ) with no regrets. I also climbed the rock wall dident

 I was really doubtful about this year. I was nervous and questioning about how this year would go. I heard My Grade 5 teacher Was a funny and amazing teacher and that i believed. I heard the same thing about my Grade 4 teacher and it was all true so i had faith. So far Grade 5 has been great ! i have made new friends (mostly with the boys ) but anyways , my best friend is in my class (shes a girl) BUT I LOVE HER TO BITS we do have little arguments yes, but in the end we realised its not so clever to fight if we wanna make this a good year. Anyways we did our first ever oral in Grade 5 and it was about our Fantasy Creature we wrote about in our Creative Writing book. I did Willow Goddesses it all just came to mind . These are not in a order of Events that happened i am just telling you about it. A week ago we went to Kirstenbotch and it was beautiful and a adventure that i loved.We saw Table Mountain covered in clouds which looked like a table cloth. And we saw flowers
