Gap Fillers & other activities

Fire drill: Although important, this is often forgotten. When organised as an activity in a competition format, this can often be an exciting way to start a stay at Aongatete. or fill a gap, when students need to be refocused. This can be a quick 20-30 minute exercise or you can spend a good hour learning about and using the fire hoses and systems.
Bouldering (on the indoor climbing wall): this activity can only be run with the presence of our rock climbing instructors. It is a great evening activity or time filler, especially for those children who are determined to get across the wall, from one end to the other, with our falling off, to earn a badge.
