Climbing wall

  The climbing wall at Whitehall has been recently refurbished. 

We had proper climbing shoes so we got really good grip. 

After  a few games, we were set the challenge of traversing along different walls. Some of them were really tricky, but we gave them a good go. We were taught some traversing skills, so we could improve our reach and stability on the wall.







To finish, we were split into 2 teams; one team hid 10 small toys on the wall and the others had to find (which wasnt too bad) and retrieve them ( which was more difficult as some of them were very high up and difficult to get to). 





It was lots of fun.

Welcome to Whitehall

 After arriving at the centre, we dropped off the bags and the bus drove us down to the reservoir. Using our map reading skills we had a lovely walk back to Whitehall. Enjoying a welcome snack break, we listened and watched out for curlews, skylarks, blackbirds, buzzards and crickets.  We spotted many wild flowers too.

Adventurous activity 1: Let's try abseiling

Image
For our first activity, we headed back towards Taddington and the Monsal Trail at Millers Dale - familiar territory for us. We exchanged tales of walking, cycling and pony rides down the trail.  None of us have abseiled before, so we're not quite sure what to expect. We listened carefully before getting our harnesses on.  The instructor checked we were all safely buckled up and ready to go. Hmm...some slightly worried looks.  Here we go. Who's brave enough to go first? The bridge over the River Wye is 80 feet high and the first challenge is to climb over the railings.  We did it!  Now we can relax.
