Let's-Goers Summer and Zhahil have a head for heights

when they try out rock climbing.

We'll be learning a really good super skill.

Let's-Goer Harrison is bringing some busy buzzy friends to meet us.

And Let's-Goer Lanni has sent in a hula challenge for us to try.

Bring it on!

-Hello, my name is Summer.

-And I'm Zhahil.

-Today, we are going climbing.

-BOTH: Let's go!

Climbing can be done indoors or outdoors,

on little walls, big walls, even rock faces.

This is Bruce, and he's going to show us how it's done.

-OK, guys, we're going to do a bit of bouldering.

-What is bouldering?

Bouldering is climbing without any ropes.

We don't climb high here. We've got a soft floor.

It's practice so when we get upstairs with ropes,

-we can get higher.

-Bruce tells us to put chalk on our hands

to keep them dry. This will help us to hold on to the wall.

What do we need to do when we are up on the walls?

I want you to concentrate on your feet.

Don't worry about the hands.

-You don't worry about your hands?

-Not too much.

-Because of the grip?

Yes. You know where your hands are,

but you need to keep looking down and checking where your feet are.

We have to make sure we are balanced and steady.

-We don't feel like we can fall off the wall.

-Yeah, good job.

-Guys, come here. Did you have fun?

-Yes.

-Yes.

-Looking forward to trying it out with ropes?

-Yes.

-Yes.

Awesome. Put it there.

We've climbed small walls. Now we're going to climb the big walls.

This looks high. Do we need special equipment?

You need to put a harness on. We've got that here.

And we need a special belay device.

What does the harness do?

The harness is a special belt that you wear,

-so you attach the rope to it.

-What's a belay?

A belay is a device so you can hold the rope without hurting your hands.

Bruce is tying our knots for us.

They are nice and tight. Let's get climbing.

And push up with your legs.

Bruce has three top tips for us...

..To remember when we were climbing the wall.

Nice, good job, Summer.

Tip one - make sure we know where we are going to put our feet.

Where are your feet going to go now?

-My hand will go there, my foot will go there.

-Awesome. Good job.

Tip two - keep close to the wall.

Agh!

-Tip three - have fun.

-What I want you to do, Summer,

is grab on to the knot with both hands, lean back,

like you are watching TV, and I'll lower you down nice and slowly.

Awesome, good job. Well done, you two. You did really well.

-Are you ready for another challenge?

-BOTH: Yeah!

We're outside to do something a bit more exciting and a bit scary.

We are going to climb this big, rocky wall.

Bruce is busy setting up the equipment.

And he's testing it to make sure we'll be very safe.

The hand that's on the rope, put it on the plant bit.

Ohh!

There.

Try and put that up in that big hole.

See if you can get your... There you go. Left foot.

-That's it. Lean back.

-I have to get down.

-And stand up.

-Find any holes and put your feet and hands in them.

Remember, it's all about the feet.

It doesn't matter about your hands, all that matters is your feet.

Good job, Summer. You're doing really well.

Lean back. Imagine you're watching TV.

Put your feet against the wall for me. There we go.

Put your feet flat against the wall.

There we go. That's it. Just walk down.

-Nice. Good job. Awesome job, guys.

-Thanks.

Wow! Summer and Zhahil, great climbing.

You got outside and went up a proper rock face.

Really impressive stuff. Now, Let's-Goers,

it's time to welcome a Super Skiller to the clubhouse.

It's Olympic gymnast Rebecca Tunney.

-Hi, Let's-Goers.

-ALL: Hi, Rebecca.

Rebecca, we would love to see your skills. Can you show us?

Yeah, of course.

Yay! Come on, then, everyone.

Oh, guys, wasn't that brilliant?

ALL: Yeah!

Rebecca, please can you teach as a Super Skill?

-Of course. Today's Super Skill will be a cartwheel.

-Wow.

We have loads of space and we're stretched out.

-Who wants to go first?

-Me.

-Me.

Max and Jasmine, you're going to go first.

Zinedene and Isabel, come with me.

If you to want to head over into the space...

So, Rebecca, what's first?

We have our first position, where we stand like a pencil.

We take our first foot out and bend our leg.

We place our first hand on the floor, our second hand on the floor,

kick over like a windmill

-and then place our feet on the floor.

-Wow.

-Yeah?

Try it again on your own.

So, start like a pencil.

Place your foot out in front and bend your front leg.

And then kick your legs over like a big windmill.

-Yay! Very good.

-Really well done, guys.

-OK, would you like to swap over?

-Ready? Come forward a little bit.

First, we stand like a big pencil.

Then we put our foot out in front of us and bend our leg,

then we put our hands on the floor and swing our legs over

like a big windmill. Ready? Go.

-Wow! Well done.

-That was good.

Shall we try again? Yeah?

We stand up like a big pencil.

Put our foot out in front and then place our both hands on the floor

and over our legs go, like a big windmill. Ready? Go.

Ready?

Fantastic. Well done, Isabel. Brilliant job.

OK, everyone, come on in.

That was absolutely fantastic. You did a really good job.

Thank you so much, Rebecca and, remember,

head to the CBeebies website to see more of Rebecca's top tips.

And keep those photos and videos TUMBLING in to us.

No HANDSTAND-ING around.

I'm on a FORWARD ROLL here.

It's time for a Send-In challenge.

Oh, I love a challenge. What do we have to do?

Well, this is Lanni doing her hula skipping.

Her record so far is 11 skips,

but she wants to see if we can do any more than that.

-Are you up for that, Let's-Goers? ALL:

-Yes!

-Let's have a go. Get your hula hoops ready.

-OK.

-And off we go.

-Emma, that's fantastic.

-Look at that.

-Look at this.

We've got some pros here, Joanna.

Oh, Lanni, you make it look so easy. I think I've managed about five.

Thanks for your Send-In challenge, Lanni. It's brilliant.

If you've got a challenge for us, why don't you send it in?

Let's-Goers, shall we watch some Send-Ins

-while we get our breath back? ALL:

-Yes!

Let's-Goers Adam and Ava met a lovely pony in Scotland.

Giddy-up, giddy-up.

This is Yuvika, who got to meet a very small goat. What a cutie!

Five-year-old Amy has been working hard practising the piano.

Sounding good, Amy.

Libby has drawn a great picture of all the clubhouse crew.

Check out our super smiles!

Arty Skye has made this fairy castle

using all kinds of crafty bits and pieces.

We love it.

Let's-Goer Christian rescued his abandoned rabbit Jo-Jo.

She looks like a very HOPPY rabbit now.

And this is four-year-old Lillian.

She loves watching and joining in with all things Let's Go.

Don't forget, you can send us your super stuff, too.

Just grab a grown-up,

go to the CBeebies website and click on "The Let's Go Club".

Next, some more super stuff with a super song

about super-strong super insects. Let's go fact-finding.

# Let's Go Club! #

# Could you be a horsefly zooming up and down

# Buzzing amazingly far?

# Difficult to chase and you'd win every race

# Cos you travel as fast as a car

# Could you be a flea as small as can be

# Jumping 200 times your own length?

# You might be revolting but your catapulting

# Needs unbelievable strength. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong

# A rhinoceros beetle lifting a weight

# Is ever so great

# It's the same as a person carrying a car

# Incredibly far

# For over a mile

# Oh, that would take you a while

# Could you be a locust sitting on a leaf

# Chewing your dinner this way?

# It takes half a year

# For me to get near to the amount he eats in one day

# Could you be a cockroach missing every snack?

# Not even a Saturday treat

# When it doesn't need dinner it doesn't get thinner

# It can go for a week and not eat. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

How strong are insects?

# Very, very strong. #

Insects are amazing.

So small, but so strong.

We've got more insects at the clubhouse for Let's Show & Tell.

-I've got beekeeper Harrison with me. Hello, Harrison.

-Hiya.

It's good to see you. So, this is a special hive.

So, can you give me an idea

of what all the different bees do in here, and why they do it?

Well, the queen is just mainly at the bottom, making eggs.

-The queen bee has got a white dot on her.

-OK.

The girls collect the nectar

and the boys lie around eating honey.

-So, the boys don't do anything?

-Yeah.

-How lazy are they?!

-Very.

Do you just wear your normal clothes when you're

being a beekeeper, or do you have to wear a special outfit?

It is called a bee suit and it's got a hat connected to it,

and netting over it, so when the bee tries to sting you,

their sting gets stuck.

Why are bees important for the environment, Harrison?

If we didn't have bees, we wouldn't have a lot of flowers.

So, we wouldn't have fruit trees and vegetables,

-and we wouldn't have oxygen.

-That's pretty important.

-Yeah.

Let's talk about honey. You've got something to show me.

-So, there's honey on here?

-Yeah.

-Can I be really cheeky and ask if I can try some?

-Yeah.

-Oh, so excited.

-Do you want some? Yes.

-Go on, then.

-Dude, that is the business. Isn't it?

-Yeah.

-It's so good.

So, we've got honey in the frame. So, how do you get it in a jar?

Well, you have to put it in the spinner.

OK, so we've got it in the spinner here.

-Can we spin out some honey now?

-Yeah.

So, we're spinning it and it's already coming out.

It's all coming out, look. Wow.

That is so cool.

-Yeah.

-Yes!

Those insects were amazing. Really the bee's knees.

Now it's time to meet one amazing family

in this week's record-breaking We Did This.

# The Let's Go Club

# Let's go. #

My name is Anna and this is my sister Rosie,

my brother Alfie and my cousins Rhea and Ava.

We're going to try and break each other's family records.

If you like funny challenges, here's something you can do.

First, we are going to make some certificates

that we can give each other if we break any family records.

Let's get making!

I'm making mine really sparkly.

It's time to break some family records.

My brother has the record for the messiest bedroom

so I'm going to try and make mine even messier.

I hope it is messy enough for the record.

My sister Anna has the most odd socks in our family,

so I'm going to try and have even more.

Ooh, these are stinky.

I hope I have the new family record.

My little sister Rose thinks she's the best dancer,

so my mum and me are going to try and dance even better.

The judges have made their decision.

You are all new family record-holders.

THEY CHEER

We love making up fun competitions, so we did this.

# The Let's Go Club

Ooh, the world messiest bed?

I could have a good go at breaking the record.

So are we. They're whoppers!

Let's-Goer Henry enjoyed making a paper-plate pirate puppet.

And this is four-year-old Toby

with his picture of a pirate ship.

It's tiptop, Shipmate Toby!
