Year 7 and 8 camp


Intro:I think camp is a good opportunity for people to learn new things they can also learn the 3p’s

For:Camp is fun and we all can have a break from school and no uniform
we play fun games and swimming and it is fair for year 7s and 8s
camp is a way to bring people together we can make new friends or
you can play with your friends you already have


Against:It may cost too much for parents to pay for the camp it’s going to be cold at night waking up too early to cold to swim people can be home
sick something dangerous might happen

My first reason is:I think it isn’t a good idea because people might get sick or are allergic to something and you may get hurt it’s going to be hard when people are trying to go to sleep on the hard ground

My second reason is:Some people may be home -sick  and lie because they don’t want their friends think their a scaredy cat and when

One beautiful day me and my family went to a deep river up north my cousin and my auntie went deep into the shimmering water my mum told me to stay in the shallow part but I didnt listen and went into the deep part I suddenly felt that i was sinking I was drowning i tried to touch the bottom but i started to cough and splutter. Ahh help me I’m drowning my auntie swam fast my mum started to cry my auntie saved me I started to faint I could see my auntie she put her hands on my chest to give me more air. I open my eye’s and i hugged my auntie i was hugging her so hard she could’nt breath after that we all ate a magnificent burger we rested and went back into the river and you know what happened next I did it again .I tarted to drown my mum cried my auntie saved me we ate this time I know that I should wait for my auntie to teach me how to swim.

Show not tell

I was sweaty, my head was burning, I felt weak and my throat started to hurt. Water I need water, my heart started to erupt I felt like I was being cooked in the oven,  steaming like lava. My face looked like steaming red flames.
