Melville Intermediate - Class Challenge at Camp

On the first day of Y8 Camp the Challenge was for the five Y8 classrooms at Melville Intermediate School to compete against each other in a variety of challenges involving water. When that was completed the classrooms had a cheer each, which was followed by the final classroom challenge. Students had to take a container of water have it delivered from the Swimming Pool, onto a Rickshaw, pass it onto another student who was being held on a stretcher, and then finally pass it onto the last group of students who had a pole and had to deliver it to the final container. If it sounds complex it doesn't matter because it was a whole lot of fun and one of the activities that the students really enjoyed. Room Eight managed to come Runners Up in this activity. Congratulations are due to our friends in Room Five who emerged victorious in the competition! Filmed on the last week of Term One at Finlay Park Adventure Camp, Karapiro, Waikato on Monday 11th April 2011.

Melville Intermediate - The Rope Swing

On the 14th of April 2011 most of the year 8's participated in a lot of the water activities that Finlay park had to offer. one of the activities was the rope swing. it was a rush of fear and excitement all at the same time. while watching this video you will be able to see the excitement and the fear on all of our faces. Thomas and Otis were being dare devils and started to show off and back flipped off the tire swing and all of us girls were just dropping off in Tyre most  funniest positions.

 Overall we had the best time. everyone will keep Finlay park as one of the greatest time of their lives.
