The Year 5 Camp at CYC Burleigh was an incredible experience filled with laughter, adventure, and new challenges. From the moment students arrived, excitement was in the air as they settled into camp life and prepared for a week of unforgettable fun. Days were packed with thrilling activities — from tubing behind a speeding boat, balancing together on giant stand-up paddleboards, and gliding across the water in canoes, to racing through the Amazing Race challenge, which tested teamwork, problem-solving, and stamina through a series of exciting beach games.

Mealtimes were a highlight too, with delicious food that kept everyone fuelled and happy after such busy days. Evenings brought their own kind of magic – the first night kicked off with a high-energy fluro dance party and karaoke, where students and teachers alike showed off their best moves and vocals. The second night slowed the pace with a cozy family movie night, complete with popcorn, helping everyone unwind and reflect on their adventures.

By the time Friday afternoon arrived, campers returned home with tired bodies, full hearts, and plenty of stories to share. It truly was a week of laughter, learning, and lifelong memories – and even the teachers agreed, fun was had by all!
