Needham Community Education

If you are obsessed with the high-stakes thrills of Wipeout, Survivor, American Ninja Warrior, and Minute to Win It, this will be your arena. This week will be all about speed, stamina, and split-second decision-making. Students will face grueling outdoor obstacle courses, rapid-fire trivia showdowns, and head-to-head relay races designed to push every limit. Whether you will be fighting for individual glory or working with your squad to take the top spot, you should prepare for a week of high-octane rivalry and "game-on" intensity.

Note: Weather permitting this class will take place outdoors for most or all of each day. Please prepare accordingly.

Instructor: Glen Hopkins, Wellness Teacher, Needham High School

ACTIVE EXPLORATIONS: In addition to the outdoor movement and break times planned by each instructor, students participating in full-day Summer Explorations classes will enjoy a 40-minute active break each day led by highly qualified Needham Public School P.E. and Wellness Instructors. During this time, students will head to the gym or venture outside to get some fresh air and move their bodies. Whether it's a brisk walk around the grounds, high-energy running games and relay races, or exciting team sports and activities, this time is a great way to break up the day, get some energy out, and boost focus for the rest of class!
