Camp Tutira

This term we went to Camp Tutira. One of our favourite activities was the Flying Kiwi. You were harnessed up, attached to a rope and the rest of the class were holding the end of the rope. The rope went up about 10 metres through a pulley. The person harnessed up (the kiwi) had to yell out "Kiwi ready ."
The people holding the rope said "Wings ready."
Then the Kiwi said "Flying on three 1, 2, 3 . ."
The wings pull the rope and the kiwi goes flying up. There were four different ways of going up. 1 - straight up, 2 - swinging, 3 - around in circles, 4 - spinning quickly in a circles.

It was great fun.
