Year 9 and 10 students enjoy Rock climbing experience

Kieran Rae —

The Year 9/10 ADV class enjoyed some rock climbing at Cattle Stop Crag

On Wednesday the Year 9 and 10 Adventure class were lucky enough to have the opportunity to head to Cattle Stop Crag in the Port Hills for some rock climbing. Students were instructed by Steve Chapman from ARA and his students who are training to become outdoor instructors. 

Our students spent the day rock climbing with superb views over the Canterbury Plains and undertook a short walk where they learnt a little bit of history about the area. It was an amazing day and the OAS pupils were great representatives of the school, they challenged themselves on the climbing and supported each other positively throughout the day. 

A massive thank you to Steve and his team and Megan Lowen for her support on the trip.
