Â鶹´«Ã½ College offers a comprehensive camping program designed to support students’ personal growth, independence, teamwork and learning beyond the classroom.
Our students consistently describe camp as one of the highlights of their school experience. Camps provide valuable opportunities to build positive relationships with peers and staff, develop resilience, strengthen independence and create lasting memories. Adventure activities are offered as a challenge by choice, encouraging students to participate at their own level while building confidence and stepping outside their comfort zones.
Our camping journey begins in Year 3, where students are gradually introduced to the camp experience through an exciting overnight sleepover at the College.
In Year 4, students participate in a two day, one night camp to Sovereign Hill, combining hands on learning with a memorable historical experience.
From Year 5 onwards, students attend camps that provide a balance of adventure based activities, personal development opportunities and curriculum enrichment. From this year level, boys and girls attend separate camps, with students participating in a three day, two night camp experience at carefully selected venues.
A highlight of our camping program is the Year 9 Canberra Camp, where students spend five days immersed in Australia’s national capital. This educational experience provides valuable insights into Australia’s history, government and national identity.
In Year 12, students attend a weekend Study Camp from Friday to Sunday, providing an opportunity for focused academic preparation, reflection and goal setting as they approach their final year assessments.
Camp costs are kept to a minimum and are included as part of the College’s Composite Levy. Throughout all camps, students are provided with opportunities for religious reflection, and all daily prayers are conducted. All food provided is halal, and great care is taken to ensure appropriate gender separation and supervision at all times.
