Optimist Yachting ( Sailing Pandora Pond)

Last week we went sailing in the amazing Pandora pond. We practised capsizing in the school pool a couple of days earlier. When we finally got there we where very nervous but that didn't stop us from having fun. To fill in our time we went kayaking too. Its definitely a great opportunity, We are all so proud that we accomplished something that big. Here's a quick video of some fun times at Pandora, Hope you enjoy!

Optimist Yachting

It's a shame the weather wasn't kind to us, but at least we managed to get in some optimist yachting and kayaking!

Here are some pics from the few days we got onto the water.

Next week we are heading off to Pandora Pond for Optimist Yachting.  This is a great opportunity for our children and they will achieve a lot over the 4 days.

In class we are preparing for this EOTC so when we get to the water we are ready to go! Check out our blog over the next few days.

Here's a clip from the Hawkes Bay Optimist Yacht Trust to get us started.
