YEAR 7 CAMP 2024

Over three exciting days filled with sunshine and adventure, students immersed themselves in many activities amidst the breathtaking backdrop of nature. From navigating serene waters during canoeing sessions to conquering heights through abseiling experiences, every moment was a chance for growth and exploration.

Guided bush walks provided opportunities for students to connect with the environment, while "Simo's Creations" sparked creativity and teamwork. The thrill of Land and Water challenges and the excitement and sometimes chaotic energy of the Wacky Sports left lasting impressions on all who participated.

But the excitement didn't end there! Evenings were alive with energy as Year 12 leaders hosted a lively dance night, showcasing talents and fostering camaraderie. And who could forget the unforgettable talent show, where hidden skills shone brightly! We also had time to reflect as we participated in an Ash Wednesday Liturgy. 

None of this would have been possible without the amazing teachers who gave up their time to lead the activities. A massive thank you to these staff members. Additionally, thank you to the parents and carers, whose dedication in transporting gear, pitching tents, and lending a hand in the kitchen ensured smooth sailing throughout the camp. Year 7 Camp was truly an unforgettable experience, fostering friendships, resilience, and memories to last a lifetime!
