The residential program includes two three-day expeditions and one five-day expedition.
Expeditions and ‘The Great Return’ Outdoor Education is an important component of our residential experience at Vision Valley. In addition to providing noteworthy standalone experiences, the Outdoor Education program also fits into the overarching K-12 Outdoor Education Continuum currently being implemented across the College. Key focus areas of the continuum include personal growth, connection to peers, life skills, leadership, rites of passage and environmental stewardship. For each of the three planned expeditions during the course of the Year 9 program, students will be split into small groups that will camp, cook, travel and complete activities together. Prior to their departure from Vision Valley, students will play a meaningful role in expedition preparation. This may include preparing food and equipment, organising and booking transport and campsites, and completing route planning.
EXPEDITION 1: COASTAL EXPLORATION Pymble students only Utilising a base-camp-style program, girls will have the chance to explore a beautiful coastal setting and participate in activities such as snorkelling, surfing and Stand Up Paddleboarding.
