Outdoor Activity Days<br />
Experience the exciting outdoors through a<br />
mountain or climbing day, caving and abseiling<br />
or perhaps a peaceful kayak or canoe ride on<br />
enchanting lakes. There are boundless activities<br />
to choose from, and these will be chosen<br />
dependent on the weather. Days will be filled<br />
with adventure, fun, courage, cultural<br />
experiences as well as environmental awareness.<br />
Activity Based Learning<br />
Students engage in ice-breaker and warm up exercises,<br />
Activity Based Learning (ABL) games which include<br />
trust, communication, initiative and problem solving,<br />
basic navigation training and practical bush tramping<br />
skills. Exciting experiences include high ropes and low<br />
ropes, a Flying Fox thrill ride, where they f ly in a<br />
harness which is attached to a fixed cable above the<br />
Mangatepopo River. Their trusty team mates will pull<br />
them back to the beginning for the next thrill seeker.<br />
Mountain Day<br />
The challenge awaits your young explorer. The<br />
theme of the day is to summit a peak within<br />
the <strong>Tongariro</strong> National Park or even a smaller<br />
peak in the local bush. This experience will<br />
teach them to work as a team, trust their<br />
instincts and grow physically and emotionally<br />
as they reach those dizzying heights.
