Hi everyone,I would like to tell you about my camp at Lake Dewar!!!!!!!
The first picture is of me getting ready to go with my suitcase and backpack. The second picture is of me and one of my best friends at my new school Vicky!! We were getting ready to go.
The 3rd picture is of my cabin mates at Lake Dewar. (I am not in this picture I was taking it). The girl on the top left is Miriam. The girl in the top center is Vicky. The girl on the top right is Emily B. The girl on the bottom left is Clodaugh. And the girl on the bottom right is Emily F.
The next picture is of one of the yellow labradors that came to the YMCA camp during the day!! This one is Nalla!! The other one that I don't have picture of is Symba!! They were really fun to play and stay with!!!
And the last picture is LAKE DEWAR!!!!!!!! It is a picture of what I could see from my cabin!! It was very pretty!!!!
What I really liked about camp was that is was the most beautiful place and I did not want to leave! The activities I did included archery, orienteering (finding markers using a map), fun games, fishing, campfire cooking, hut building, Weeribee river session, and kite making. We had a movie night and watched "Night at the Museum"!!! And we did a night walk and theater drama!!! We saw a kangaroo on the nightwalk!! So that is what we did at my school camp!! But I was also exited to come back and see my Mom, Dad, and Brother!!
See ya,
Maddie

It certainly sounds like camp was really fun. When I taught school in Denver, I used to take my fifth graders to camp in the mountains. They really enjoyed it as well. Love, Pa and Sally
yay! A new post. I always look forward to your news. Orienteering! Archery! Sounds like camp rocked! Thank you for posting pictures of your new friends. Now, I really remember my old school days in England. My best friend was named Vicky too. Do you feel like the luckiest girl in the world to go to school in Australia and get to go to camp! Wow.
Ro and Neeks had a lot of fun at their pool party this weekend. They mentioned several times that they missed you and Isaac but that next year you would be able to come to their party. A lot of their friends from Nurturing Knowledge and a few of our twins friends came. Much love, Elham. (will post a message from the girls soon)
Hi,

Maddie

Hey Maddie,
Are you sure you weren't at camp for a whole week?? Wow, you certainly did alot of really neat things. Will you get a chance to go back there during your stay in Australia? How wonderful that you are making some great new friends. You are going to have lots of pen pals when you get back to the states! How are things going for Isaac at school this week? I hope he is thoroughly settled in and having a blast! Can't wait to see the picture of him in his hat. I love you! Grammy Di
Hi Maddie and Isaac,
Maddie, where did you sleep on the bunkbed? On the top or bottom? Did you like the night walk? Was it night time at school? We are excited we won the contest.
roshann wants to type: i wish i was in australia.
neeku wants to type: i want to do sfn right now.
I wish I was at your school because I really want to have that sleepover and do that night walk. It sounds fun to me. neeku.

Maddie, I want to go to your house and I really, really, really, really, really, really, really want to go to your house cuz I really, really, really, really want to, um, um, um, um. It is fun.
Isaac, It's so much when I go to your house because I want to play with you. It's so fun so that's why I want to go to your house.
((that's transcribed from Neeku!!)
Hi Maddie, Your camp weekend sounds wondereful. I'm so happy to hear about all the friends you've made. What's it like to meet a kangaroo at night? Was it as big as you? Since you are wearing a jacket, I am guessing it is still cool, at least in the morning. Give Ikey a big hug, and we send you a big hug as well. Talk to you soon. Love, Grammy
