Day 1.Firstly, when we reached the camp site at the Dairy Farm Adventure Centre, we gathered at the canteen.
We spent about an hour or so there where they checked if we had any food or drinks in our bags.
Next, we went to our dorms where we put our stuff and then went back to the canteen again.
We spent about half an hour or so having lunch, the food was okay.
Then we went to this area near the back of the canteen to play games.
The first game we played was called Human Entanglement. W e had to form a circle and hold the hands of the person in front of us. Then, we had to untangle ourselves, it was really confusing, we had to bend and turn and even cross over someone’s arm.
Next, while waiting for the other group to finish their game, we played charades at the corner of the area.
It was really funny because it was really hard to act out what they wanted us to say.
After the Charades, we continued to play the second game, called the Leap of Faith, it was like rope skipping, but the one we played involved 5 people.
We had to, one by one, jumped in until there were 5 people rope skipping.
It took all of us about an hour to finish the whole game.
After the Leap of Faith, we continued to the Low Elements. These included The Wall and The Nitric Crossing.
We went for a campfire preparation next, we joked, learned cheers from others. Needless to say, it was hilarious.
Later on, we had dinner. Everyone was very happy to have dinner because it was a tiring day and we were all starving.
At around 10p.m , we went for a night hike near Bukit Timah, we were separated into groups of ten.
I thought the hike was quite scary, the forest was eerie and gloomy and my imagination ran wild.
We ended up at a huge field of grass where we could see huge hills.
We sat there for quite some time, finally, we started to go back to the camp site and then had supper which was curry puff. Then, it was time for bed.
Day 2
A lot of people were really hungry because of the extremely tiring hike.
After that, we went for the High Elements.
Firstly, we had rock climbing, then abseiling, next was the CRC.
The CRC included the Postman Walk, Cargo Net, Charlie Chaplin, Wild Woozy, Swinging Beams and the Tension Traverse.
When we finally finished, it was almost dark, and we went for dinner.
After dinner was the most exciting part of the camp! THE CAMPFIRE!
Every class cheered and shouted loudly to win.
After the campfire ended, we went for supper and showered.
Finally, it was time for bed.
Day 3
Everyone woke up in the morning and started packing our stuff.
Carrying our heavy bags, we went for assembly.
Firstly, we were debriefed and then we had a morning stretch.
Breakfast was next, this was followed by an area cleanup.
We cleaned the toilets, picked up the stuff people left behind and also washed the floors.
Then it was time for us to leave and say goodbye to Dairy Farm Adventure Camp.
With our heavy bags and heavy hearts, we walked out of the gate and hopped onto the bus.
