Best bits of
your course
|
We liked the gorge
walking because it was challenging, different and fun! We loved climbing up
the Elephant’s bottom! |
Most
challenging bits…
|
Some of us found
canoeing challenging because our arms got tired. Others found the rock
climbing challenging because the abseiling was tricky. However, every person
in our group managed it! |
What did you
learn about yourself?
|
We can do ANYTHING
if we put our minds to it. |
What did you
learn about others (your team mates)
|
You can trust and
rely upon other people. We found that we encouraged each other when we were
finding it tough. |
What did you
learn about the environment?
|
It’s very pretty if
you take a moment to glance around at it. It is also very muddy and slippy
when it’s been raining! |
Red Group
|
Megan, Harry,
Harvey,
Beth, Jess, Liam, Sarah, Melissa and Max. |
Best bits of
your course
|
We enjoyed the
canoeing because we learn to work together as a team. |
Most
challenging bits…
|
Rock climbing
because some of us were scared of heights but we overcame our fears.
Climbing up the gorge sometimes on our tummies to get under some very
slippery large boulders. |
What did you
learn about yourself?
|
However hard we
thought the activity was going to be, we tried our best and we will look
back and know we achieved the goals we set for ourselves. |
What did you
learn about others (your team mates)
|
We learnt that we
could trust in each other. When we were rock climbing we felt safe because
we knew we could rely on our team mates to look after us. |
What did you
learn about the environment?
|
We should treat it
with respect. The only thing that we should leave is our footprints and not
our litter. We learnt when we were gorge walking that when treading on the
rocks that the grey rocks were ‘ok’, the green were ‘mean’ and the brown you
were going ‘down’. |
