News 29th Sept

This meeting we all started out about the spices map. Emma B read out the different things as we assessed ourselves on the spices map. We then all went outside and played ninja!

When we went back inside we decided what jobs needed to be done and gave  them to people:

Paddy: organising paintballing

Oisin: Food Paintball weekend

Fionn: Hike

Stephen: skiing in kilternan

Dylan: Go-Karting

Night Abseil

Last week the Ventures took a step into the unknown and went abseiling at night, in the pitch dark, in Dalkey Quarry. Unfortunately nobody thought to take any photos so we have absolutely no proof, but I promise we did do it.

This was a great activity, if slightly terrifying for some. Everything went perfectly, we even had a spotter at the bottom with a torch to let people know when they were coming close.

If any other section is interested in trying out climbing or abseiling please let us know.
