Kayak trip to the beautiful Upper Usk
The advanced group from the school’s kayaking club tackled the River Tryweryn with a beginners’ group of Year 8s on the River Dee. Ben, from Year 9, and Sam, from Year 10, joined the older group on the Tryweryn and both tackled very big water with a smile. The older boys took turns to lead the group down different rapids. The younger group paddled several sections of the Dee and had a wonderful introduction to waves, stoppers and pour-overs.
Three parents also helped out, camped with the boys and joined the Dee kayaking group; the school was very grateful for their valuable support.
