Garin Guests and the "Human Knot' Challenge

This week we had some visiting speakers from Garin College's Outdoor Pursuits Club.
They talked to us about sustainability and gave us a challenge to reduce the amount of electricity, food packaging and fossil fuels like petrol we us in cars. Some of us are going to take up the challenge and we are going to remind Mr Searle to switch off the lights if they are not needed.








Then they taught us some team building activities.
The girls managed to untie the 'human knot' but the boys must have tied a granny knot as it just kept getting tighter and more complicated.
Ask the students to show you and see if the family can escape!!
Thanks Garin, you were great role models.
