🏕 camp explanation text 🏕

 Why all kids should go to a school camp.

So all kids should go to a school camp where they can learn new skills and make new friendships and to build more confidence in each other. And join in different groups that you can interact with.     

Whanaungatanga 

Whanaungatanga is when you can make new friendship or you can build more confidence with each other or you can join and interact with each other in a group so while you are at camp when you see some lonely you can go and make friendship or you can help them with their stuff like unpacking there thing in the room or you can help them clean up in the dining room. And you can learn other people's language and their culture. And the meaning of whanaungatanga is that you can encourage each other to do new things.     

Learning new skills

So learning a new skill is what you haven’t done for the first time so the things that you will see is that there is kayaking,paddle board,orientering,beach walk and more but you can do things that are independent.

Break from internet 

So the break from the internet is when you can get away from you school work and away from your social media. And get to find the meaning of getting a away from your phone and having fun with you school friends and your teacher.
