We enjoy seeing our girls find courage outside of their comfort zones.
We enjoy seeing our students find courage outside of their comfort zones, whilst exploring the great outdoors of this beautiful country.
A vital component of the curriculum, our Education Outdoors Program builds a number of physical, social, personal, spiritual and environmental skills and attributes.
Beginning in Year 3 and continuing through to Year 10, our broad range of year level camps provide enriching experiences to challenge our students in a safe and supportive environment. Each year the program builds on the skills learned and challenges faced in the previous year.
Year Level Camps aim to develop student skills, knowledge and confidence. Commencing in Year 3, this program culminates in Year 10 when students are allowed to ‘choose their own adventure’. Year Level Camps are purposely designed to build on the skills learned and challenges faced the previous year.
