Beach Cookout

Beach Cookout WPC Response

In Room One and Eight we are learning to 

• Design a menu suitable for cooking on a campfire
• Keep within a $5 budget
• Share the jobs and food provision fairly between team members
• Bring along all equipment we need to cook with/on/in
• Work cooperatively to cook our meal

On April 3rd in the morning Room One and Room Eight walked down to the Karoro

Beach

 to do a beach cookout. There were many parents and the teachers Ms Kemp and Mrs Maclean. In my group I had Korban, David, Ethan and myself. Each group had their own parent to help them. In my group we had Angus Taylor as our parent. At this time of the year it is Autumn so it is an open fire season.

For our team group we figured out what we wanted to cook because someone said 

nacho's and we all agreed on cooking them as well as pancakes.  At our beach cookout

 we didn't have set jobs we all just took turns doing somethings.

When our two classes walked down to the Karoro Beach we were very close to Watson's Creek and the ocean at Tasman Sea. To make our fire we used dry things like old mans beard then kindling and last thick pieces of wood in a pyramid shape.

Our two classes went because so our teaching could see how we work as a team, 

to have fun, for the William Pike Challenge for a new experience and to build new 

outdoor skills.
Doing the beach cookout didn't really have any challenges I thought we worked well as 

a team, but I managed to flip a pancake easily.

I had a really good time down at the beach with my team and I thought we worked 

very well together. If we could do this again I would like to.
