Outdoor Education

Mr Mikaere Dirkse —

The Year 12 & 13 Outdoor Education class endured some amazing weather during their snow camp.

It was cold, rain fell and winds blew very strong which resulted in the mountain being closed on the first day. The learning continued ... first times for a lot of people, facing fears and learning about ourselves. Mountain biking, ABL and indoor rock climbing are good closed day activities.

Day Two the winds eased (a bit, gusts of 200km/h at the top) and allowed us to hit the slopes. Everyone was working towards practical assessments and experience new activities.
