Maungatautari

The year 10's recently had their quarterly trip into the outdoors. And they are showing very good promise.

The first group got to the top on a chilly day in record time. Although it was cold many of them were warmed up from the inside out due to their appalling language. The chilli's were a hit.
Some whinging was had but all in all they were very prepared and snappy walkers.

The second group were just as quick lapping up the walking/climbing and of course the chilli's. Some were having more chilli's than others. Once down the bottom we had a look in the southern enclosure and bumped into a guy herding a couple of Takahe ready to mate in the aviary.

Here's some pictures from the 2 trips

Year 11 MTB Action

With a couple of options on where to go on our MTB trip, we decided to roll with the always inspiring Whakarewarewa Forest in Rotorua.

Here's a mash up of both year 11 classes ripping it up.
