Car Camp
2001
The following report was prepared by one of our Car Campers,
Kat:
It's time again, time for some fun. A group or wonderful visiting
teachers and their students were up at the Charlton Driving Course for 2
days. We all met at Woodend at the Piccadilly Café, before continuing on
to Charlton. We didn't check into the motel right away, first having lunch,
either that we had brought, or at the Milk Bar. From there we went to the
driving course, where we met our instructors, then we chose our cars.
Although there were the 'typical women drivers' (myself included)
that just had to see how fast the cars could go, everything went smoothly
and safely. Both days we drove Toyota Corollas, which were blue, white and
green. Even though it was a tight squeeze with four student to each car,
we all had fun. As always, in a manual car, we stalled time after time, but
actually made it around the course quite well.
As always, we surprised the instructors and teachers, by
doing quite unexpected thins during the breaks, as well as in the car, with
our immaculate control of the cars. On the second day, we took up the challenge
of the obstacle course, winding in and out through the cones, reversing around
the figure 8, and hoping that we would be the team to win, During the evening
we played a few games, Uno and Trivia, coming up with very interesting answers
to the trivia section. Also we were lucky enough to be celebrating two birthdays,
Ryan Styles and our instructor, Bernadette.
As always, it was a wonderful experience for all involved,
thanks to the staff at the Charlton Motel, our very brave instructors and
the wonderful Visiting Teachers. Thank you all for making everything possible!
