To me, teamwork is the ability to work together with your peers to accomplish something together effectively and efficiently.
On year 9/10 Blair & lock camp I was able to show and partake in many acts of teamwork and showing leadership. The first thing portrayed as being able to set up campsites and tents, I participated in my group by helping to unpack our equipment and setting up our tents and sleeping bags.
Cooking on camp was a big part of showing leadership because we had to prepare all our food, set up the fires, cook the food, cleaning the dishes, and ensuring we have packed away all our equipment. I contributed to my group by mainly preparing the food and we all took turns in cooking so we didn’t get smoke in our eyes, this made everything so much easier and much faster to cook as a team and so we all pulled our weight to cook and clean. On the different nights, we all took turns in cleaning, cooking, and prepping so we would all be able to experience it.
Working in the activities was the main part of showing leadership and working as a team because the activities are specialized to work with your classmates. I showed leadership in the activities by helping to guide my group and to help us to finish our activities faster, for example in the amazing race, we all had to work together to find the clues. We all guided each other and contributed ideas to ensure our activities were done correctly.
I believe I am a great team leader and can work very efficiently with classmates to help guide them in any activity, or any other circumstance
