Kayaking- Double Periods

Throughout Term 1, our group was doing kayaking on each Wednesday double period, learning the correct paddling techniques and trying our best not to capsize. It was a great time and we learned how to put on skirts, correctly fitting your kayak for optimal conditions and what to do if you turn over. I enjoyed each kayaking lesson I did and it was fun to get out there and go on long paddles around the shelly foreshore. The only bad thing about kayaking is when you end up doing donuts in your boat when you stop paddling!

. The Best Moment (On day trip)

I believe the best part of the entire day trip has to be when we were entering the water ready to kayak in the river. Unfortunately for everyone, we had to get pushed into the water via the huge staircase, resulting in many people capsizing as soon as they hit the water! We all had a huge laugh and then once we were all in the water we played a bunch of fun games and enjoyed how beautiful the water and the surroundings were.
