What we aim to achieve:
- To develop self esteem, trust, communication & problem solving skills through activities that have positive outcomes in a safe and non-threatening environment. The focus is on participation and fun (challenge by choice).
- To maintain and develop health and fitness through a series of climbing based activities and challenges.
- Encourage talented athletes to pursue climbing as a sport.

Method – How we achieve these outcomes:
- All students receive a safety induction that provides them with the opportunity
to hold the ropes (belay) for their classmates once competent. Belaying is only
permitted for Years 5 and above. - A basic warm up is demonstrated during week one and is then recommended
for subsequent weeks. - New and progressive skills are taught weekly in a group situation. The
students are encouraged to employ these techniques during their supervised
climbing (Facilitated Program only). - Towards the end of term students have their current climbing competence
assessed. They are graded on a scale that ranges from beginner to expert.
The scale notes their achievements and highlights the areas they need to
focus on in order to progress as a climber (Facilitated Program only).
