PE Excursion

On the 28th of August myself and 2 classes set out on an adventure to Narrabeen sports Complex. We embarked on this journey at 8:20am where we spent an hour on a motorized vehicle until we reached the complex. Once leaving, we saw the Trbojevic brothers exiting their training session with Dylan walker.

When we arrived we quickly started the high ropes course and the title of Joeys Ninja Warrior was up for the taking. Our instructors were very informative and outlined the safety requirement before entering the course. Once we were up there, the course was difficult as you had to manoeuvre ourselves around wooden planks, thin ropes at extreme heights (100ft). After many attempts most of us attempted the difficult course, with red hands to show for it. After this the reward was quite significant of a high flying fox which everyone participated, some even flipped upside down.

At around 11:30- 12 o’clock the group journeyed over to archery in which we shot archers at around a 10 metre distance. At the beginning hitting the target anywhere was unheard of. However, towards the end of the session we became William Tell shooting apples off the top of the target. There were only a select few to achieve this incredible feat, Matt Ryan, Kane Almanci, Tommy Hannan and the King of Archery Mr Rollo. We played games, battled duos for the victory but by far the highlight a kookaburra swooping in on Mr Rollo’s sandwich.

It was safe to say that this excursion was fun, enjoyable, and demonstrated the positives of outdoor recreation.
