Recount

That time of the week had come year 8’s week 4 our time to show leadership at kauaeranga christian camp.Every year students at pt england school that are year 8’s they go on a leadership camp to go and enjoy activities and leadership opportunities.We are heading of to kauaeranga valley christian camp.

The camp had activities they would usually have at a camp but this camp had activities you wouldn’t expect….Paintballing,Go karts.and more camps I go to don’t have these activities Paintballing and Go karts.Have you ever done paintballing before?I haven’t while since I haven’t I will like to give it a go when it’s my teams turn…

Last rotation my time had come to go and try out Paintballing i’m very nervous about it.We had to put on a pair of goggles to protect our eyes.The camp didn’t have guns that you will usually have at paintball Instead of guns we had slingshots….We started of with a nice and easy game it was capture the flag in my team was napa fetuao and david we were called the silly team….Once i saw the other team shooting I saw one coming for me and it hit my chest it was so saw that i got a bruise once i got that bruise I said to myself I should ask david or napa to protect me so that I don’t get hit again I was so scared from then…

Yeahh it was finally coming to the end of paintball we played the game were one person runs from the tree to the other side and everyone can shoot I was the second one to do it I felt scared because I had no one to protect me but that was okay...We were starting the game I ran across and my whole team was shooting at me once they shot SWISH! The first paintball went past my head then the second one went BANG! Straight onto my face I said Owww screaming so loud some of the paintball even went into my mouth I was like eww Yuck it tasted like mud with it I said weoww I failed.

It came to the end of the day were the year 8’s go into the lounge and have their meetings.Our theme for this year was O le alaia e lepule o tautua,It means show leadership through service.What this meant to me was to show leadership as a leader and also serving others I stepped out of my naughtiness and stepped up as a team leader.If i did something naughty one or two of my team memebers would have copyed me and that would of been showing no leadership as a leader to them.
