Well done to the students in Middle School Outdoor Ed for their great work during our recent mountain bike sessions! These students completed two sessions, the first at school which focused on improving their skills through a range of challenges and obstacles around the school grounds. The second session then involved riding to Lilydale Lake via the local bike paths. Once there the students completed a beginner and intermediate skills course. On the ride back to school students were again given the opportunity to challenge and extend themselves, this time on the local BMX course.

It was awesome to see the students actively engaged in the activities and responsive to the instructions. They supported and encouraged one another and displayed resilience to push and extend themselves further, resulting in their skills and confidence improving significantly.

Great work to all involved!
