This week we had the first kayaking group session. Everyone learned how to get in and out of a boat, capsize and empty the boat safely.
Bobbing about in buoyancy aids - blue llamas get wet! |
After trying to paddle the boat in various ways with hands only, everyone looked relaxed.
Using hands as paddles. |
Then we started using paddles - what a difference!
Time for a relay race!
Getting to grips with paddles. |
Gradually everyone began to get a bit more control, until...
getting into position... |
they were whizzing along quite happily!
Whizzing along |
Well done everyone - you took on the challenge, persevered and learned lots!
This looks like a real challenge but lots of fun too!

looks like they're enjoying the kayaking and I liked watching the gymnastic sequences. Thankyou for putting all this so quickly on the site for us to see.
