Open Canoeing with Bridgwater College Outdoor Education Students






Back out on the Bridgwater and Taunton canal today with the Btec Level 3 Outdoor Education students. Today was their last practical session for their 'skills for water-based outdoor and adventurous activities' module.

The 16 students were split into two groups of 8, each group attending a 3 hour session. One AM and one PM.

We spent the first half of the each session looking at bank based rescue techniques and on the water towing/pushing strategies. The second half was spent assessing their personal skills on flat water. A 10-15mph wind made the students have to think as their previous sessions have luckily been in very clam conditions.

All of the students have made good progress through the module which is great to see.
