Higher and Higher...

Crate stacking is a really excellent example of the kind of Knapp House activities which demand teamwork...

18 children from groups 15 and 16 worked together to build the highest crate stack possible, with three team members at a time taking turns to be the climbers.

Other group members passed up the crates and three sets of three people "belayed" for them. (This means they pulled the ropes through the safety locks and kept them tight so that when the crates fell over, their team mates were safe...)



We used special time lapse photography to capture one group's work...
