Monthly Rockcraft Skills workshop – open to anyone who has attended a TP/AG (Rigging & Rescue) course, or Guides maintaining currency. Current Qual not required. This is a self driven workshop where we will cover what you need to work on toward your quals, or what you want to practise/review.

A great way to build your skills towards guide (or your OAS levels). Rescue workshops are also one of the ways you can demonstrate your rescue currency which is required for all guides, and especially if you are going through requal. If you are a current guide this is also a good way to stop your rescue skills getting rusty.

If you want to build on your skills and work towards being able to take other people out abseiling then this is the workshop for you. Learn how to set up abseils, rig for rescue, and get yourself and others out of difficulty. This covers aims to get you through the content of the Trained Participant and Assistant Guide levels of the VET qualifications to give you a solid base to build you abseil skills on. Participants can also use this course to cover items in their OAS levels 5,6 & 7. We aim to also assist participants with the RPL of their Trained Participant Core.

It is expected that participants assist on a couple of Safe Participant Courses, and attend followup workshops to fully achieve competency at a VET standard.

Repeat Participation in the course is free.

Course Structure

The two theory nights are held at Barra Brui Scout Hall and includes a mix of theory presentations and practical components. These introduce you to the skills that you will then practise at an in hall practical day at Barra Brui, followed by on Cliff Practical at Lindfield Rocks.

This is not an overnight course.

The practical days run from 8am to 5pm.

Participants should be prepared to do a bit of pre-reading and “homework” between theory sessions and before the practical to get the most out of the course (although you can still succeed without that).

Assumed Knowledge

The course is suitable for Venturers, Rovers, and Leaders.

The course assumes completion of OAS Stage 4 or equivlant knowledge (at least 10 abseils accross two ocassions, ability to prussik, ability to operate a top belay). However we generally get a broad range of skill levels from people who have recently completed their Safe Participant/OAS 4 course right through to very experienced people who are getting up to speed on Scout’s NSW standards for rigging & rescue.

Recomended Pre-Reading

Additional readings will be sent out a week before the course, and after each practical session.
