Waihi Camp
We all had a wonderful time on our Waihi Beach Camp.
It was a busy three days full with fun, learning and plenty of exercise. We were certainly lucky with the weather.

Thank you to all the camp parents who helped make it a success. Thank you to all the parents for having your child so well equipped and for the generous donations of home baking and fruit. The children can be thanked for their awesome behaviour. It was a real pleasure to take such a well behaved class of children away on camp.

The highlights for the children were ….
>walking through the dark tunnel at Karangahake Gorge
(lucky we had torches)
>the train trip at Waikino
>the Museum in Waihi (especially the miners’ thumbs and the jail house)
>the bus trip (driven by the principal!) around the huge gold and silver
mine pit
>the activities at the Education Centre
>the surf swim
>the visit to the Information Centre and the Old pump House
