Hi, my name is Katherine and I am from Sandringham College.

Today, 2B were the first group to go on the full day environmental bike ride. We left straight after 9:00am headcount and were driven to an area where timber has recently been harvested. We were then taken to a site just across the road where the trees had been cleared seven years ago and new, young trees were growing up. We discussed how we felt about the way timber is harvested and used De Bono’s hats to help reflect our thoughts and opinions.

After this, we started our challenging 28km bike ride. We rode through tracks, on roads and up and down hills and even though there were some steep climbs that looked never ending, we all successfully completed the course, coming out of it with new skills, talents and qualities.

Over the last 9 hours, every member of 2B has improved their biking skills, their positivity and their encouragement. We know that the time is flying so we are making the best of every amazing opportunity we are given!
