P.E. As We Never Knew It

As part of getting to know our teams for camp, the Year 8 students al took part in a fun sports session.  They had to work as teams to solve problems and it was fun to war chest the steps that they took to do so.

This activity called Volcanic River involves a team needing to get from one side of a 'river' without stepping off the 'rocks' or leaving one without having a foot on it.  As the instructions were brief, the students needed to come up with the ideas to work effectively in order to succeed.

It was interesting being a bystander, watching people 'fall' into the river, being left in the middle without team support and trying to work as a team.
