Kismet Park PS Year 6 Camp Blog


On the stunning Monday afternoon, 28th October 2024, the Summit welcomed the year seven students and teachers of Kismet Park Primary School.  

 

Students were promptly shown to their accommodation, where they would be staying for the next couple of days! After they got settled, they were welcomed into the Stadium where coach SPINKs gave an introduction to camp and the coaches! Sam shared with the students the Summit’s very own recipe for the best camp ever, and the ingredients to that were the Five Keys of camp. These keys are:

  1. Have Fun

  2. Play All In

  3. Make Lots of Mistakes

  4. Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable

  5. Don’t Go Home Wondering “What If” 


Without further ado, we all headed down to the BBQ shelter and started with a game of 50 Up. Then Ant and Zoe taught everyone how to put on a helmet and harness, followed by Haylea discussing our epic goal-setting strategy called Target, Stretch, and Super Stretch which would help us to grow our comfort zones and conquer challenging activities.

 

Campers started their first activity with an Initiative Challenge that involved working together to solve a puzzle. This tested teamwork and leadership, but teams rose to the challenge! Then we moved on to our first activity rotation. The activities that campers got to do at the camp were Snowy River Challenge, Giant Swing, Abseil, Orienteering and Rock Wall and Inflatables. This range of activities challenged people’s bravery, team spirit, support, trust creativity and problem-solving skills (to name a few!) 

 

Day one ended with introducing the students to a camp tradition called GMICs, which stands for “Great Moments in Camp” - this is all about writing down and acknowledging some of the awesome moments we have seen.

 

Day two started with an epic talk about setting a morning intention with Sam, learning about how important it is to choose to focus on the things we can control after showing them the video called ‘Let’s laugh more.’.  The questions were put out to the group, asking the students to think about who they wanted to be and how the wanted to show up for; themselves, others and of course the activities. We then played a quick game before getting into the park and beginning the three activity rotations.

 

After lunch the students had their team challenge which was to perform their tribe chants which lasted 20 seconds each, and were judged on three categories; volume, creativity and participation, scores are in the table below., to warm up before the mud run, we played a group game of Jockeys, our two winners Bronte and Tayla.  Finally, it was time to do the famous Monster Course, this was a feat of teamwork, strength, and resilience. As students completed the course, the groups were unaware that they were running two laps of the course, so they got themselves together and then got the second lap done! The winner of the run was the team that had the biggest improvement time from their first lap. All teams improved by 8 minutes or more.

 

As the last day rolled around, heaps of GMICs were read out, then Sam took the kids through a gratitude session, where the students were asked to think about who and what they are grateful for, to not go home wondering ‘what if’ and to ‘check back in’ for the last two rotations of activities to go. Heading down to the BBQ shelter for a game called Pirates to warm the students up, the top 10 winners were coach Zoe, Tayla, Karen, Lexi, Milla L, Max, Jake, Ava Q, Layla and Sophie G.  and the final rotation ended the students were asked to vote for someone in their tribe who represented/embodied the Five Keys the most throughout camp. They received a medal each as a reward to stand for their tribes. (These are listed below along with the results)

 


On behalf of The Summit, we would like to say once again thank you for coming to camp and joining us, and having all the fun, all the best for the rest of the year!


Spinks, Haylea, Zoe, Fran, Sam, Ant
