Waiting for a turn by dide

Waiting for a turn

Yesterday, while at the Hunua Falls, it was neat to see all these big kids learning kayaking skills. As well as that, they had built rafts and these students on the bank were waiting their turn to trial their craft. The weather has been pretty warm, so they weren't at all perturbed when their raft sat somewhat low in the water!

Nice falls, great image, but such a lethal place.

@tramway Good to see it being used positively - good instructors, calm weather, all the safety gear - lifejackets, helmets, whistles, footwear, ropes etc.

It was great to see that these kids were taught water skills and to see them using this area wisely.. Like all water ways it has to be treated with respect.. it was great to see the home made raft being successful in the launch .. fav

@julzmaioro I just compared the falls with a photo you took on Donna's birthday in 2014 - there was lots less water going over the falls yesterday!

It might still be warm but I bet that water was jolly cold... rather them than me, brrrr! Great to see them with their personally designed rafts.

It looks like a beautiful place to go. What a great skill and team builder education the students are having.

You've captured what life should be about. Inventing, exploring and being out in nature. Great adventure for them. Nice waterfall too 8-)
