All of us tried something we’ve never done before but would love to do it again. People overcame fears and took part in once in a lifetime opportunities. The instructors were really funny and liked to joke around. The best part was having heaps of fun with your friends and watching your favourite teachers boat capsize. We would encourage everyone to go and not miss out.’ By Sophie Baldock and Jessica Herron
The students that attended were Jessica Herron, Chloe Mullins, Hadrian Watson, Hannah Baker, Sophie Baldock, Francois Goulds, Ashley Harding, Charlie Hatton, Michael Wood, Michael Langley, Sam Lewry, Finn Truman, James Beswick, Oliver Osborne, and Danielle Hinchley.
