Speed boating with Year 9 at Bartley Sailing Club

The pupils showed an interest in each having a go to drive the speedboat along with the teacher's supportive demonstration and guidance. At the beginning all of the pupils went out on the speedboat as a group for the teacher to go through which ways to turn the steering wheel to go different directions and how to operate the lever to control how fast and slow the speedboat goes. 




The pupils then went out in pairs with the teacher where they took it in turns to travel up and down and side to side along the lake. Some of the pupils showed an interest in making doughnuts as they went round in a circular motion several times really quickly. After one of the pupils asked if they could go all the way around the edge of the lake along with the teacher and one of their peers.
