Camps and Excursions
Teachers plan for ‘real life’ learning experiences beyond the school environment. These include excursions and when in their final year, students experience a camp. Excursions and camps provide the students with rich and diverse learning opportunities as well as important life skills. They enable students to connect with each other and make life-long memories. All excursions and camps have a curriculum/learning focus and complement the learning being done in the classroom.
In 2016, an inaugural cultural excursion will take place for students in Year 6 who wish to partake.
