Vector Wero Whitewater Park Trip



Today Miss Morris came with us to the Vector Whitewater Park which was funded. We were lucky enough to receive funding and we paid $5 to take part. When we arrived we watched two videos which taught us about how to be safe while we were there and a short introduction video. Before we were allowed in the water we needed the right gear. We needed: a helmet, swimming shoes, a life vest, a blue jacket, and a wet suit. We were then put into groups of six where the groups were given all a raft and an instructor. My partners and I received Mac as our instructor. While we were there we learnt how to cross the rivers and what to look for, how to go down a river safely in a raft, and to end a great day; we went floating down the river. We all enjoyed ourselves and it has taught us how to be safe when we are faced with a rushing river and we need to get across. I was lucky enough to save someone from the river. Thank you to the people who funded the amazing experience and to the instructors for ensuring a safe and fun time.
