"54 Health Science Academy students embarked on two awesome days of Camp at Motu Moana Scout Camp on 7 May.

Over the two days we tested our confidence on the Burma Trail, we explored the forest on-site, and we used our social media skills for good by making information videos about different health issues facing Māori and Pasifika.

Two wonderful mum's Sasha and Flo kept us well fed, so thank you to them for volunteering!

Thanks to Miss Ah Chee and Miss Beel for keeping the girls safelty in their beds after lights out, and to Mr Smith for helping run all of our fun events over the camp."
