The Leaders camp was held at Ragama – Diyagala boys town. We are very happy we went to this camp.We  met very interesting guys. We were joined by three teams in Ragama. They were from Moratuwa, Monaragala and Negombo. It was held on 2 days, 25th & 26th of September. There were 70 participants. They were all divided into 4 teams . Their names were Sugar, Chocolate, Honey &  Toffee. Each team cooperated to finish their team work.

This time we had many different activities compared to last year’s camp. The theme for the camp was ‘Change Our Lives’. Eight teachers & one mother was in our camp staff. They do team activities, Physical training, Outdoor games, First aid training & psychology training . Teachers look after us very well.

The leaders camp was  held on 25th and 26th of September 2010. We learned many things in the leaders camp. Those attending came from different areas. We were divided into four teams but worked together  to complete our tasks. This is the second time the leaders camp was held. The last camp we attended was held in september 2008.

We had teachers to lecture on First Aid. We also learned how to take challenges with all the  out door team building work. At was first  we afraid but later we  enjoyed it and we did not want to stop. We learned lot of things that weekend- to work together as a team and to build confidence, trust and friendship. It was the day I really learned  leadership skills. we are transformed  with better  skills. We shared our rooms with strangers who later became our friends.  It was a golden opportunity for all of us.

It was an unforgettable day in our lives.

I am just a little pencil
That’s made of wood and lead
My body is long and pointed
My body is smooth and red
I once was long and handsome
But I know soon  must die
I like to write quite  nicely
but master does not try
He treats me very badly and
often shaves my head
He cuts me so unkindly
that I shall soon be dead
He sucks me too – I hate it
and put me in the ink

Just tell me what you
think about me and
my master

The sky was dark and deep,
There were no stars in the sky,
All those stars are hibernated,
But one star in the corner of the sky.

The star was slowly come down,
That star said,
“I am the beautiful
I am the brightness
I am the magnificent”

But there was no star in the sky
I think it may be my dream only.

This nature is owned by us. We must protect our nature because nature also protects us. That is our responsibility. Some people are cutting trees; destroy the nature and also water, and hunting the animals. Those are very bad deeds. Nature is essential to us.

Sometimes we cut one tree, after we must plant one or more trees. Because we prepare the beautiful nature. We don’t pollute the water. Because there is also sea living beings in the water. We can take anything from nature for our use. There is, especially water and oxygen, light, wind, cold, hot, shadow and also flora and fauna. Therefore we must protect not only Sri Lankan nature we must protect the whole world’s nature.

I thank God for this beautiful, magnificent, excellent, sweet and also protect able nature given to me. I love all nature. You too should love and protect it.
