At the end of every session at camp we have what’s called a closing campfire, where everyone heads down to the stage and each section performs a little skit (with a different theme each time). It’s a great evening event, and has a very celebratory feel to it, everyone happy and relieved to have made … More Photo Of The Week: Closing Campfire
Sorry…yesterday was hectic so I didnt have time to put this up (also…I lose track of what day it is here at camp, so I totally didn’t even realise it was Sunday!) Once per session (every 2 weeks), the counselors and kids play a game called Chaos for one of their evening activities. It’s a … More Photo Of The Week: Chaos
Just another quick update before I rush off to teach the last radio show of this week. Not much has changed…still hectic. Still loving it. Making more videos more quickly than I ever thought possible. Taking a ridiculous amount of photos. Always tired. Still. Loving. It. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. P.S. New … More Still Awesome!
A few days ago I was walking across the athletics fields, where the kids were playing some form of kickball and I happened to glance up and saw this incredible sky, with the clouds spreading out behind the tree, muting the setting sun.

Just a quick update on my life at camp, while I sit in the office all alone on inter-session day. The first session (two weeks) of camp have come to an end, most of the kids have gone home and I’ve now been here for exactly 3 weeks (pretty much to the hour). It’s been … More 3 Weeks In…

Yesterday was an all-girl event at camp, with every girl in attendance at the ‘non-birthday party’. There were games, cupcakes, music and dancing. Lots of fun was had by all. It’s moments like these that I stop and just take a minute to appreciate how lucky I am to be here, surrounded by all these … More Photo Of The Week: All The Girls At Camp

The kids arrive tomorrow afternoon, and I can’t wait for camp to really begin! This last week I’ve just been settling in and getting to grips with my job (or jobs!)….I’m in the office for part of the day, teaching media (film, photo & radio) 3 hours a day, and spending the rest of my … More Camp Begins Tomorrow!
