Day 5 - Community Day
We spent the day planting trees with about 40 kids from the elementary school in Rotorua. When we got to the school we played games and sports with them, like touch rugby and kickball, and then we went off and planted trees (my group planted 14, and we won the contest of who could plant the most!) Then we had lunch on the beach where we planted, and dropped the kids back off at the school.
Later that night, we had Burger Fuel for dinner (HUGE burgers and sweet potato fries), and had “Talent Quest”, where I drew bones on my friend’s hand in 2 minutes (and my own later) because it’s kind of the only cool thing I could think of.
Then we all hung out by the bar and went into town! Everyone departed the next morning for their universities.
