Year 7 are on target

On Monday 1st- Wednesday 3rd May 2023, the Year 7 students attended Year 7 Camp, Camp Wilkin Anglesea. The Year 7 students and staff supervising the camp left the college at 9.00am by bus and travelled to the camp. 

We arrived at Camp Wilkin by 11.00am, commencing our first camp experience with a safety briefing and students being allocated their rooms, followed by morning tea. 

The theme while at camp was “PERSERVERENCE and CHALLENGE BY CHOICE”. All students attending the camp were up for a challenge! 

The Year 7 students and staff were up by 7.00am each morning preparing for breakfast, commencing our first activity at 9.00am on each of the days. 

On Day 1 of the camp, the students participated in Mountain Bike Riding, High Ropes and a Beach Night Walk to conclude the day. All students gave their best efforts in each of the activities. 

On Day 2 of the camp, students participated in rotational activities, such as, Orienteering, Team Initiatives, Gaga Ball,  Gaming Room (free time), Climbing Wall, Damper Cooking session, concluding the night with a movie. 

On the last day, students were up early cleaning their rooms and participating in their final group initiative activities. All students and staff departed the camp at 11.30am, stopping over at Eastern Beach Geelong for some delicious salad rolls and fruit provided by the camp. 

The Year 7 students and staff who attended the camp displayed great leadership, enthusiasm, team work and strived towards our camp theme “PERSERVERENCE & CHALLENGE BY CHOICE”. 

I would to thank all Year 7 students who attended the camp and their families for their support in making this camp possible. Thank you to all staff who attended the camp.
