Camp pics from Day 1 at Lake Ferry

What an exciting camp.  The students were really great and I hope they came home with high hopes for a positive year of learning in Mahi Ako and Room 6.  One of the most important intentions I had for this camp was building whanaungatanga,  a relationship through shared experiences and team work to gain a sense of belonging.  It is an integral part of having 31 personalities all working in a successful environment.  

Here are some photos from day 1 at Lake Ferry.
