We are writing thank you letters to the people who made this camp possible.
I chose Shaun, our group adult and Francesca's dad.
He did belaying for the Rock climbing and high ropes. Belaying, is the person who moves the rope when you are in a harness high up.
Rock climbing was my favourite, and though I was really scared that I would fall, I knew I wouldn't hurt myself. It took a lot upper and lower body strength.

Dear Shaun,
I am writing to you to thank you for your help and work to make the Year 5 and 6 camp possible, just like every single adult that helped. This camp was one of my favourite memories out of my time at St Mary’s School. You looked out for everyone, including our group (Fran, Ciara, Selina, Elena, Jorja, and I), our buddy Group (Jason, Corin, Noe, Arcangela, Mikaela, and Unaise), and even people who weren’t in our group. It wouldn’t be the same without you!
I enjoyed the rock climbing the most out of the Tui Ridge activities. You were the best at belaying! Thank you so much for encouraging me to go further even though I really didn’t want to. Flying fox was hilarious when you zoomed down.
So thank you Shaun, for taking your time to do this, look after us, and help the teachers cope with all of us 69 kids, which they probably couldn’t keep an eye on for 4 days all on their own! I hope you keep the St Mary’s Year 5 and 6 camp in your memories.
THANK YOU!
Ngā mihi
Catalina
