Hi Everyone
I think everyone would agree, what a wonderful day we've had at MERC. Although, it started with raining cats and dogs, the rain soon settled down and a bit of sunshine crept through in the afternoon.
So proud of you all having a go, facing your challenge.....doing something new at abseiling, kayaking and raft building. Thank you all for showing respect to Tangaroa (the Protector of the Sea). IC

Abseiling: keep your feet straight on the wall, lean back and go down. |
|
Go Girl Power! |
|
Safety first: put on the websuit, then life-jacket. |
|
paddling warm up....left down up and right down up... |
Hopped on the kayak and off we go!
Hurray!I'm the first to paddle to shore!
|
These knots will come in useful for building a raft. |
|
Now, what kind of knots will be good to tie these barrels? |
|
Now, makes sure the plank is secured to the barrels. |
Lets go for a test drive! Will it fit all of us....
It was fun. Nate
ReplyDeleteIt was really cool. I liked the abseiling best because you could overcome your fears.

I like kayaking because it makes my arms stronger, balancing in water. Tugi
ReplyDeleteMy favourite part was when we jumped on the raft and everyone started falling down.
