Kayaking

What a fantastic end to our kayaking programme at Debdale Water Centre! Over the last 7 weeks, our students have developed their paddling skills, water confidence and teamwork, all while having plenty of fun on the water. They’ve also all secured their Start Award from Go Paddling which is a great achievement.

Our final session was a real celebration of the progress they have made. Students have learnt to control their kayaks and navigate the open water all whilst supporting each other through every challenge, they really have demonstrated resilience, cooperation and teamwork.

We’re so proud of how far everyone has come, they’ve finished the course as confident, capable paddlers and we’re looking forward to using the skills we’ve learnt whilst kayaking along Lake Windermere next year for our Silver Duke of Edinburgh expedition.

Well done to our sports pathway students for their constant enthusiasm, positivity and willingness to step outside of their comfort zones. You’ve all done amazing.
