High Ropes Course 2009
High Ropes Course 2009
Safety, trust, responsibility, co-operation are the values required to participate in a High Ropes Course. Year 12 Physical Education student’s demonstrated these values in March this year when they went to Uni-tech to participate in a course run by Adventure Works.
Students were placed in situations where they were 15 metres above the ground, on a beam performing various activities. What made them safe were their pairs belaying them from the ground with ropes. Students were responsible for their own safety. This included checking knots, harnesses and other equipment and having the maturity recognise risk and develop strategies to overcome these.
The course was thoroughly enjoyed by all participants. The reward was in the leadership shown by the students and the changes of behaviour that occurred through goal setting and reflection. The challenge now is for the students to transfer there behaviours into school life and their family lives.
On top of these outcomes students also gained eight level 2 credits towards the NCEA. Allen Mulia, Sabina Stowers, and Teiro Glassie deserve particular praise for the leadership qualities they exhibited on the course.
