I used to train newbies how to climb at Buffalo, it's a brilliant place to learn the basics and there's no better place to learn footwork, balance and weight transfer. I suggest heading to the Gorge Carpark and practicing friction and crack moves in the small craglets near the disabled access lookout, then head to the Lake Catani crags where you'll find some easy slabs and crack routes, all easily toproped. After that you can throw them on the routes near the Hang Glider ramps, personally, I tend to find that newbies find routes like Banana Blase etc extremely scary and difficult, plus they're trade routes and you don't want to tie them up all afternoon :-)
