Adrenalin Forest

Analise Roscoe & Ella Wilford (Tall Poppies) —

On Wednesday the 20th of March while the Tall Poppies were away at camp, they took a trip to Adrenalin Forest.

Once everyone had arrived, (and with much struggling) had gotten into harnesses and gloves, we were introduced to the challenges.

At first, most of the Tall Poppies were feeling a bit tentative at the thought of possibly falling through the trees! Those thoughts changed quickly though as we were taught how to safely secure ourselves to the overhanging ropes with some special hooks.

We started getting excited. Those with more confidence started at level 3 or 4 but for others, it was level 1 or 2. Many people accomplished things they never thought they could, such as crawling through wobbly tunnels and going 18 metres high in the air!

Nobody was worrying any more and almost everyone was confident and went up at least one level or more! After leaving the Tall Poppies had some more fun at Fernland Spa.
