We are the Survivors of Piha Camp 2012
Despite all weather warnings and the postponement of camp by a day, the Year 7 Turanga Whanau persisted and ventured out to Stedfast Camp at Piha for what would be an adventure!!
Although we had some rain we didn't let that get our spirits down and continued on with the activities planned. Post a comment below and share your highlights from Camp 2012:-)

Up the Mountain We Go!!!!
This term 40 students in four groups from Year 7 set off on the adventure of a life time.....To tramp up to the very top of the Pinnacles. Through bush, rivers, hills and stairs, these young warriors toughed it out to make it through. Even the story of Don Brown, "the baddest man in the whole darn town" came to life once more! The students carried all their food and cooked up a meal to keep them going. The Balmoral Habit of Persistence was key to their success. Here are some photos of the group that I tramped up with! Post a comment if you like.... but be careful what you say.....Don Brown could be watching??!!
