Year 8 Challenge Week

This week has been Challenge Week for our Year 8 students. The philosophy of the week was for students to step outside their comfort zone and challenge themselves in a variety of ways - and they have done an amazing job achieving this. 

Students were able to push themselves physically Canoeing/Kayaking and Bike Riding, they implemented their teamwork and problem-solving skills in the Escape Room, Geocaching, the Design Challenge, and building a Raft. They confronted their fear of heights at Trees Adventure in Belgrave and tested their balance and coordination when on the Aqua Park in Bangholme. 

It was great to see the growth and development of students across the week. This will provide them with a strong basis to work from for the rest of the year and will encourage the students to continue to build their resilience by challenging themselves on a regular basis.

We would also like to take the opportunity to thank all the staff that assisted in organising, leading, running and supervising the program.
