School Camp Planning Activities
Here is a schedule of suggested school camp activities which can be carried out at the Tangihua Lions Lodge or else where.
A well structured set of activities for school camps, with good lines of communication ( e.g. a printed time table) will make the camp easier to run. It will also help attract parental help. Times and activities will vary with age groups, the number of days available and the camp goals.
Do not under estimate the importance of time out or wind down periods. A few packs of cards, balls and other inclusive games will help students settle down into the new routine
