A week of NCS

Image
This week I have again been at Cannington Activity Centre assisting with their large number of NCS students. Although I did a bit of Low Ropes and High Ropes, it was mainly Orienteering for me with an average of 20+ km being covered each day as I ran around groups. I am off to catch a ferry now, watch this space

A Week of Activities

Image
The last three days I have been working for Cannington Activity Centre on their NCS programme. A mixture of running instructor observations, logistical support and running a couple of sessions myself. We had groups out biking, paddling, High Ropes, Low Ropes, Orienteering, Night Line and trips to Kilve Beach.

Climbing and Exmoor

A little climbing at Cannington Activity Centre  followed by an evening walk up Dunkery Beacon (519m) on Exmoor for the NCS group toady. My last day with them and they all seem to have had a great week.

SOT and SUP

Almost an exact replica of yesterday. Sun, Sun, Sun, supervising SOT kayaks and paddling my SUP. What is not to like? Another 2 good groups from NCS based at Cannington Activity Centre .

Low Ropes

After a morning of cutting ropes, drilling, screwing and general admin, the refurbishment of the Low Ropes course at Cannington Activity Centre was complete. There were 4 NCS groups on it this afternoon giving it a good test. Such a nice afternoon after getting drenched in the morning whilst setting ropes.
