A successful and exiting morning climbing at Ratho Edinburgh International Climbing Arena last week with a great group of students from PAVE (Programme for Alternative Vocational Education). We are using the NICAS (National Indoor Climbing Award Scheme) to measure our success and achievement in this programme as we continue to climb over the next few weeks working through level 1.

Some great bouldering, belaying and climbing going on and we hope to develop confidence and resilience through this programme. This will also include completing L1 NICAS and completing an SQA improving wellbeing unit. You can see more information on the NICAS scheme here.
