I couldn’t believe it, there had been so many other items and in any time it could have been the respectables turn. I stopped and turned my head to look around. People were cheering for the team that was on the stage. A nerve-wracking moment had come, a big round of applause filled the halls atmosphere. “Now its time for the RESPECTABLEZ!” Mrs Langitupu shouted with enthusiasm, “Is this a dream ?” according to Selena this was a dream, she muttered underneath her breath.
Our year 7 and 8's camp concert was on and it was the 2nd night of camp. You know where we camped? Well we camped on the school grounds. My group had a lot of fun because we did everything carefully and we took charge of our things, you think this might be stink, but we actually had a lot of fun.
When it was our time to dance, everybody started to cheer. The music started to play and the first group of girls started to dance, we performed to the song called “Chain Hang Low” the voices of the throng started to raise. I started feeling scared, anxiety had grown in me. We did our performance and there was a BIG round of applause. I guess a lot of people liked ours.
As soon as everybody was finished, we sat down and the last few performance’s finished. We were turning impatient to know who was going to be the winners of Camp Take Charge. “The Winners of 2011 Camp Take Charge are the.... DRUMROLLS PLEASE” Mrs Langitupu shouted and drumrolls hit the floor!! “The Respectables”. We shouted with happiness inside us, my ears were throbbing.
At the end we all got a handful of lollies, we saved some for the next day. Everybody got sent to their tents since it was night. As I went to my tent I waited silently for my tentmates, they came in thinking that they would get to scare me unfortunately I shouted “Yaay” they were the ones who had the big fright.
I had a terrific time at camp and it was awesome. I just couldn’t believe it, 3 days had passed by so quickly and it was as if it had just been 12 hours! From the senior school camp I learnt to be respectful to my team and all the people who came to Camp.

Tech @ Tamaki
"Yaay, we're going to Food Technology" Seini-Mino exclaimed. It was Monday and it was the day where all the year 7 and 8's went to tech! It was obviously my first time there, so it was very thrilling for me.
Every Monday we went to Tech at 8:50. We all were put in a group , I was in 7B. Why do you think we went there? I think we went to Tech because the teachers wanted us to experience subjects that weren't in our school, such as:
1. Woodwork
2. Graphics
3. Science
4. Cooking
and
5. Electronics
As we headed towards Tamaki collage, Seini-Mino and I chattered excitedly. 7B was the group that was going to cooking. We stepped into a new environment and could feel the air of excitement.
Mrs Heka, which was our cooking teacher took us into the cooking room and said a little introduction to introduce her to us. As we got into position (which was in a kitchen with 3 people in your group) we had to stand and wait quietly. There was dead silence like we were at a funeral for a minute or so because Mrs Heka was doing something.
“Today we will be making sticky buns aka Chelsey buns” Mrs Heka announced. “Yaaaay” a crowed of Pt England Kids screamed. I was one of them. After my group, which was Seini-Mino, Tupak and me had all of the ingredients we started to do the real fun. This was cooking.
As soon as we finished making the buns, putting them into the oven and doing all the overall jobs, we started to pack our sticky buns into some bags. This was because so then we could take it back to school and finish it.
It was morning-tea time already and I kept it in my bag for a little while. I took it out and started to munch on it, I couldn’t resist eating not 1 but actually 2. Scrumptious and exquisite. I loved it when we went to take a bite and you would hear that crunch, it meant that we cooked it just right.
Whenever we go to tech, we make a lot of heavenly food and it tastes awesome. I think that going to these classes make us learn more and it also helps us know more about technology and other things that associate with cooking and food.
