Second year sea kayak from Wembury








A great day out being confused by the differences between charts and maps, rock hopping and sea caves with a little surf to cap the day off on the landing.

Intro to paddling for first year students







The first year students tried out canoes, sea kayaks and white water kayaks at Alder Lake, discovering the scope and versatility of each craft, along with  different ways of falling out of them!

Upper Sixth leading Tamar Touring trip





Due to the current lack of water in the rivers, today the Second year BTEC students ran a day touring on the Tamar for the First year students.  Launching at Cotehele Quay we paddled up river past Morwelham Quay, not quite making it to Gunnislake, we enjoyed lunch afloat before turning and riding the change of flow back to Cotehele.
