We just had the best fun at 15Mile Creek camp. We did a class poll on what activity we enjoyed the most. The bike hike won hands down. We rode along bush tracks, tried to ride up Mars Bar Hill (named because if you can ride to the top without stopping you earn a Mars Bar.....no one did!)and then got to ride through a large puddle. Our slide show shows lots of smiling faces.....and dirty clothes
Just click on the link above to see our photos.

Skittles

Skittles

One of our favorite games is skittles. We each have a skittle that we have to protect as we try to knock down other people's skittles with soft balls. We are not allowed to touch our own skittle even if it's wobbling and going to fall down. If our skittle falls down we have to pick it up and leave the playing area until the next game.

GREAT FUN

Bower Birds




When we were at 15 Mile Creek camp we found a bower that had been built by a satin bower bird. The bird had decorated his bower with pegs, a headband, wrappers,and electrical tape. When we got back to school we found out a lot about bower birds by researching on the internet.This is what I found out about the bowerbird.
The male bower bird attracts a mate by making a structure of twigs called a bower. The bird spends many hours making it attractive by decorating it with berries and flowers. Female bower birds choose the bird with the prettiest bowers. After mating the female goes away and makes a nest for her eggs. The male's bower is no longer needed. Bower birds live in Australia and New Guinea,in rainforests and dry bush lands.
