2/3 JACOBSON TEAM BUILDING
During week 2 of Term 3, 2/3 Jacobson excitedly embarked on our first adventure as a team on our MEC excursion to enjoy and appreciate the nature of what it means to be part of a team. The day was full of success and achievement as students encouraged one another, developed a range of strategies for different challenges, negotiated ideas and improved their communication skills. This was demonstrated in our top class record of 16 students for the ‘George of the Jungle’ activity where we had to swing on a rope from one side to the other without touching the ground or falling off the tyre.
