Programs

Our programs and activities

The activities that we most often use in our residential camps can be grouped into the following two strands:

1. Sustainability
2. Personal and Social Capability 

There is of course an overlap of our activities. For example a canoeing activity although defined as a "Personal and Social Capability Activity" will more often than not, encompass elements of "Sustainability".

Use the links below to view a summary of each activity. We have also identified how these activities might target some content of other areas of the Australian Curriculum (Version 8.0). The Pre-visit and post-visit activities provided will enhance your students learning experiences.

See how these activities fit into our suggested programs.
