Year Seven
Year 7 spent a day at Black Rock Outdoor Education Centre enjoying archery, a ropes course and water based activities. Here are some accounts from the students:-
I thoroughly enjoyed the trip, but I am just going to point out a few good things about it. I did low ropes - it was amazing and way better than I imagined! We really worked together and trusted each other more than ever before. The raft building was especially good. Luckily our raft didn’t fall apart, but I did fall off. It was freezing – but so much fun! The coach ride was hilarious, we all sang really louly.. I had a fun filled day!
The highlight of the trip was when we all went on the high ropes, which is a course that involves walking across cables, climbing trees and helping with the ropes that hold you up. My favourite course on the high ropes was the leap of faith, where you are supposed to jump off a platform and on to a trapeze, then pull yourself up on to it and hang from your legs!
