SRC Camp!

Last week I had the absolute pleasure of attending Concord School’s first Student Representative Council (SRC) Camp to YMCA Camp Manyung in Mount Eliza. Our SRC comprises of students from Upper Primary to Secondary 11/12 so it was wonderful to see students from 10 – 18 years old all come together away from the school setting. The group slept in multi-age rooms and everyone were able to demonstrate independence and responsibility when staying with each other.

This camp aimed to develop students’ ability to persist, demonstrate initiative, work as a team and communicate effectively. Our itinerary ensured that the students could practice these skills as we enjoyed many fabulous experiences:

· Leadership challenges

· Flying Fox

· Low Ropes Course

· Kitchen Garden – pizza making

· Trivia Night

· Share delicious meals!

I’d like to thank Kirsten, Trish, Lachlan and Olivia for attending the camp and enabling our SRC students to be the best they can be!
