Adventure World Inquiry - Obstacle Course Group

Over the past term a group of Room 8 students have been investigating the possibly of having an 'Obstacle Course' located up in Adventure World.  Their learning had to change after they contacted the Gore District Council and found out that they couldn't make any type of fixed playground equipment without a builder's permit due to health and safety guidelines.  They decided to build simple obstacles with materials that could be easily sourced.  They used wood and tyres.  One of their obstacles is a rope net obstacle and they are still working on this.  After they built the obstacle course there were many keen students using it, which was great.  The group painted all of their own obstacles and did all of the manual labor with NO support from adults.  Well done guys!  Here are some pictures...
