Long Beach Rock Climbing in R11

Jess LangSeptember 7, 2020

In Week 7, R11 headed out to long beach for their final rock climbing session. We were very lucky and were able to get a brilliant sunny day! 

They class split into two. One group on the wall and the other going for a cave walk and activities on the beach. 

After first, lots of kids were nervous about climbing the rock face but they soon gained their confidence.

I'm really glad that I gave it a go and faced my fear of heights. I had a lot of support from my team members which made me feel better. It felt great to be at the top. - Tauaoa Poma 

It was a challenging and entertaining day. My favourite part was being buried in the sand and becoming a mermaid. The parents helpers were really supportive and helped me get up the wall. I did the two challenging climbs and they were fun. The hardest part was at the very end because I had no energy but still had power through to get down. - Matt Davies

We were really lucky that we got a really sunny day which got everyone pumped and energised. I liked being able to have a go a climbing and also have fun on the beach. The hardest part was keeping climbing when you were really puffed. It was also cool having a look around the different caves at Long Beach. - Jemma Gray
