Do you want to spend more time in nature?
Perhaps get off the beaten track, away from the crowds? During this course you’ll gain the skills and knowledge to allow yourself to confdently venture INTO THE WILD
Taking place over 2 full days, you’ll learn a broad range of skills that assist with ensuring your time in nature is a safe and rewarding experience.
If you’re just starting your bush walking journey or are an experienced hiker looking to go that little bit further, you’re sure to gain new knowledge and skills that will help achieve your goals.
Perhaps you’re wanting to get into bushwalking but are unsure on how to start, what gear do you need? Is it safe? Maybe you’re looking to step it up a bit, going on an overnight or multiday hike but are unsure on how to make that transition. You could be thinking of stepping off the path well-trodden and trying some off-track adventures. Well, this course may just give you what’s required fulfl your dreams.
Day 1
Day 1 is all about getting you ready and geared up with all the right equipment and knowledge to make your journey outdoors safe and enjoyable. In addition to getting you prepped for the outdoors the afternoon will be spent starting our journey into Wilderness navigation.
Day 2
Wilderness navigation and map reading should be an essential part of every outdoorsy person’s skill set. More often than not we tend to rely on our phones GPS and inbuilt maps for navigation purposes. Although these tools are incredibly useful at times they should not be solely relied upon. Today’s focus on some good old fashioned (and reliable) Map and Compass navigation adding to the basic understanding learnt on the previous day.
Day 3
Optional - FREEWaterfall hike 7-8km 3-4 hrs on Monday 26th August.
Visit one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the Tweed/Byron region Soooo.... You’ve just learnt all these new skills so let’s put them to the test. We’ll head off early Monday morning. We won’t be following the regular track to the top of the falls, we’ll head off track and approach the falls from the creek below. This is a great opportunity to lock in that knowledge and explore some ancient beautiful Gondawana Rainforest.
Please note...This walk ventures off track and includes rockhopping and a very steep exposed scramble. Please consider this before choosing this option.

FRIDAY
THE DOG ACADEMY
TEN, 8.45pm
We all know the saying that you can’t teach old dogs new tricks, but this frisky new series puts that thinking to rest. Expert dog trainers and behaviourists Victoria Stilwell, Nanci Creedon and Adam Daines, help desperate owners who really need their naughty furry friend to learn and become the teacher’s pet. Educational and uplifting, this British series has its head above the dog pack by not only teaching the mutts new skills, but also o ering an eye-opening and sympathetic peek into the owners’ stories. Tonight, Mya the Jack Russell terrier-cross has a savage phobia of windscreen wipers and her retired owners are at their wits’ end, fed up with being scared to get behind the wheel.
FRIDAY, August 23
Monday The Rookie
SEVEN, 9.05pm
It’s the quirky cop dramedy that brings the laughs as well as the heart-in-your-throat moments. Back for its sixth season after a shocking season nale, viewers’ emotions have been held hostage after fanfavourite O cer Aaron Thorsen (Tru Valentino) was shot and rushed into surgery, with the ominous shrill of a the hospital alarm as the episode faded to black. In “Strike Back”, Thorsen’s fate is mercifully revealed, but the tension doesn’t have a moment to slacken as Nolan (Nathan Fillion, pictured) faces his nal rookie shift before his adorable, smileinducing and stylish wedding to Bailey Nune (former Janet Jackson back-up Jenna Dewan) next week, which shines with some snazzy tongue-in-cheek lines.
TUESDAY
The Assembly
ABC TV, 8.30pm Hot on the heels of Welsh actor Michael Sheen’s moving one-o special (if you need a dose of heartwarming vigour look up the viral BBC The Assemblyclip), based on the French series that featured a playful President Emmanuel Macron, this new Aussie rendition pulls on the heartstrings. It’s also packed with soul-nourishing chuckles. Leigh Sales is helping mentor a group of candid and inspiring autistic journalism students, who interview well-known guests including our own Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and pop star Delta Goodrem. Tonight, comedian Hamish Blake (pictured with Sales) elds queries about growing up, with a question from Chau about happiness and comedy striking gold.
