Although we felt this might have been an easy activity, we quickly realised that we need the support and trust of others. We began the session with a series of games to build our trust in each other.

Could we possibly run through the line, trusting our friends to drop their arms before we ran into them? It was harder than we thought!

And then we were tested further. The middle person had to fall against the other who adopted a ‘ninja squirrel’ stance to support them. Again, I t was much harder than it looked!

It was then time to explore the low ropes course with our ninja squirrels at the ready to catch us if we fell

The challenge then became greater when we wore blindfold goggles, carried a cup full of water, had extra hoops to go through or even had some of the ropes removed!
