Year 7 CampYear 7 CampWednesday morning on March 19, I got on a bus withthe Year 7s and three other helpers for a six hour longtrip to Tathra. Our job as helpers, or “seniors” as wewere often called, was to help the Year 7s make friendsand encourage them to join in games and activities.They did need a little encouragement to cross thelagoon on our bush walk, but they didn’t need any helpmaking friends.My friend Harriet and I are in Year 10 but we werecommonly mistaken for Year 7s, which wasn’t veryflattering. There were many dramas during the camp,such as when the girls stayed up late checking their hairfor ticks and leeches. There was always something todo whether it was raft building, hiking, telling stories infront of the campfire, swimming at the beach ormaking giant sand castles. Being a helper was veryrewarding and showed me what a great group of girlsthe 2012 Year 7s are.Lauren AbrahamYear 10 student13
