Camps are Back

The Year 7 Lord Somers Camp held at the end of Term 1 was a wonderful and adventurous experience. Students participated in numerous activities including stand up paddle boarding, screen printing, kayaking, raft building and so much more. For many Year 7 students, this was the first school camp experience due to lockdowns in 2020 and 2021.

The challenges of being away from home and adapting to a new environment, equipped students with additional values, skills and knowledge across leadership, communication, resilience, confidence and friendships. There were many highlights including nature and beach walks, sharing fun times with friends, trivia and karaoke nights and learning new activities. Well done to all the Year 7 students for their participation at the Lord Somers Camp.
