In teams we will
- 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
Today room 1 and 8 went to the beach for a beach cookout. We had teachers
and parents helping us. The kids in my group were Nathaniel, Summer and Charlie.
Our parent was my dad, Tim. Mrs Truman was floating around looking at different fires.

When we got down to the beach we had to make a fire in the spots we had chosen.
We used tinder (tiny sticks like gorse.) After putting the tinder we had to put kindling
on the tinder. We had to arrange the kindling in a teepee shape. After that we had to
arrange bigger sticks around the kindling. In the end you end up with a medium teepee shape.

We went and cooked the food and made the fires at Karoro beach. Karoro beach is on the
West Coast of New Zealand by the Tasman sea. Next to the beach is Watson Stream/Creek.

We went down to the beach at eleven in the morning on the 3rd of April. It was a Wednesday
of term 1. We went down in Autumn because you are allowed to light fires then without a
permit. Mrs Kemp had a permit anyway but of course we didn't need it.

We went down to the beach for a number of reasons.
One of the reasons was because we wanted to do it for
the William Pike Challenge. One of the other reasons was because we wanted
to learn new skills like lighting a fire and building a safe fire. I reckon the most
important reason was so we could have fun though. I definitely thought it was really fun!

Our team didn't really have team roles. I think we all contributed evenly.
For our food we made Taty Fry for our main and pancakes for dessert. We
were the only team to make pancakes from scratch. I really liked the taste of both foods!

We didn't use too many ingredients. Everybody only spent five dollars because
that was the maximum amount of money you could use. The most challenging
thing for me was not being able to adjust the temperature! The part that I most
enjoyed was cooking the food a different way to usual!
