Our reflections:
Mintra: I think camp week is good and fun. I met some new friends and they are all nice. It was a bit tiring, but it’s still fun. I did something that I’d never done before like making a dam and building a fence. Building fence it’s a very hard work, so I don’t want to have to do this again.
Phumin: This is my first time on camp. It was good and a bit tiring, but it was fun. I can make a lot of friends. We played games together at night time. Sometimes we played Uno together and had fun. My special time was cooking and playing games at night time.  
Tim: Through this camping I learned to be more independent, know more about my friends, and it let me know more about Chiang Mai.
Yejun: This camp was good to learn about the importance of studying hard at school. If you don’t want job to have a building dams or walls you must study hard to get an office job
