4th YEAR PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT FINAL CYCLING ASSIGNMENT
Have a look at our pictures from Wednesdays final cycling assignment for the 4th year personal development class on the link below.
They cycled almost 20 miles, had an eye-opening, outdoor educationally jam packed, life enhancing, confidence impacting, experience! Along the way we had several flat tyres, navigational situations, they were physically and mentally pushed, explored new areas, surveyed the lands geography, and as experienced science (especially the effect of gravity pulling down hill as you try and cycle up).
Overall it was a braw day, it was filled with sunshine, smiles a bit of sweat, and of course life impacting outdoor education.
