On the first day of camp everyone went to Kaiteriteri. Once we got to the beach we were fitted with a life jacket and put into three groups. My group was group A, our group was called team A for epic (Because we're great spellers). Our instructor was called H the other instructors names were Johnny,Dougal and Charlie.
The first activity we did was raft building, we built the raft then carried it down to the water. Everyone had to get onto the raft in the water and it around. Then after we took the raft apart we rolled down the beach to the water in the inner tube.
After raft building team A did some survival swimming. We had to swim around H in a heavy fleece jumper it was really hard. Then We had to get into one of two huddles and float, it was FREEZING.
Our last activity was kayaking, before we got into a kayak we had to practice paddling. Then we got a kayak and carried it to the water. We got into the kayaks and paddled out. We played a game of man hunt and Dougal fell into the water. Then we lined up in the kayaks and some of us had to stand up in them and run to the opposite end of the line. Gus and Shaylen jumped into the water and Shaylen couldn't get back up onto the kayak.
After that our group went up to the caving hut on top of Ta hill. And that was what we did on the first day of camp.
