As part of their introduction to high school, a three-day camp was organised for all Year 7 students, in February 2023. Its purpose was to build skills in teamwork, making friends, increase self-esteem and otherwise provide an exciting and enjoyable environment to interact with new classmates in.

The camp took place at the Great Aussie Bush Camp at Kincumber NSW. A range of activities, including raft making and bush skills are organised and run by qualified instructors with an accompanying teacher. All instructors have first-aid qualifications.  Please note some water activities will be involved.

The students will travel by coach to and from the venue and will sleep in large cabins with bunks. A list of requirements is provided on the following pages. If you have any difficulty in obtaining any of these items, you must bring this to the attention of the Year 7 Adviser well in advance of the departure date.

Getting ready for Camp, information for parents must be read by both parents and students. Adherence to these guidelines at all times whilst at the camp is mandatory – failure to do so may result in removal from activities or being sent home at parent’s expense.
