This term, Year 9 students have been completing a Sport and Recreation unit as part of their Physical Education curriculum.

 

During this unit they explore community facilities and alternative forms of exercise that can contribute to their health and wellbeing. A popular activity as part of this program is bouldering. At Northside Boulder, students have challenged themselves by trying something new - climbing a variety of walls and equipment provided at the facility.

It was good to get out of the school environment and do something that we would not normally have the chance to do.

I give bouldering 5 out of 5 stars! The staff at Northside were really helpful and it was great to try something different.

I enjoyed bouldering (I give it 4 out of 5 stars). It was great for working on forearm strength.
