Building Bivvies

By Georgia

At camp we went into the trees and built bivvys. Everyone was in groups of six or seven. Some groups built theirs by taking a bivvy apart and using the sticks, others used sticks they found on the ground.There were a lot of sticks on the ground. Most groups did both. We had one hour to build the bivvys. Miss Walsh was coming round saying to add special features like a campfire. A lot of groups added campfires, coat hangers. My group added a window. It looked like a window because we had a little bit above it, so it looked like it had a blind that could go over it and it wasn’t just a hole. We also added a seat which was a log Samantha found. I made a bed with pine needles and we had pet pine cones. We had a washing line, coat hanger and food which was huhu grubs we found in a fallen down tree. The winners were Noah V, Ben, Kaia, Fletcher,Callum and Sam D. They won because of their great teamwork.
