Year 7 students embarked on an unforgettable adventure at camp last week, embracing the great outdoors and forging stronger bonds with their peers. The experience was packed with excitement, learning, and personal growth, leaving the students with memories they’ll cherish for years to come.

The camp itinerary was filled with a range of activities designed to challenge and inspire. Activities included Rock Climbing, Archery, Flying Fox and many fun beach activities. Students were encouraged to step out of their comfort zones and develop resilience, leadership, and collaboration skills.

A highlight of the camp was the opportunity for students to reflect on their experiences. On the final day, they gathered to share what they had learnt and the memories they had made.

“The lesson that I learnt was to try new things even if you are scared or nervous, you should always try anyways.” – Jayson

“My camp highlights would probably include the zipline, food and the dorms” –Anya

“I liked how we got to go to the beach and do fun activities. Archery was great, I learnt how to use a bow.” – Logan

“One thing I learnt was exactly how loud my classmates can be!” – Violet

During the evening on Night 2, students were treated to a Drama performance by Mrs. Whitehead, which depicted the story of when Jesus came to Earth. Students learnt about Jesus’ character, how He treated others during His time on Earth and how we should live life more Christ-like.

Teachers and camp staff were impressed with the positive attitudes and team spirit displayed by the students throughout the week. The camp provided an invaluable opportunity for students to connect, grow, and create a strong foundation for the rest of their high school journey.
