MERC Y6 Trip

At the beginning of March, all of our Year 6 students travelled to Long Bay to visit the Sir Peter Blake Marine Education and Recreation Centre. The children first took part in problem solving games, which relied on them working as part of a team to complete a series of challenges. After this, the children split into groups to take part in abseiling and body boarding taught by the MERC Instructors. During the body boarding sessions the children first learnt all about rip tides and staying safe in the water, followed by a great time catching some fantastic waves.
