Year 11 Mount Cole Camp
Beaufort Secondary College
Our Year 11 Outdoor Education class recently travelled to Mount Cole State Forest for an overnight camping experience. Hiking several kilometres to and from their overnight camping location, the group made the most of the views and the beautiful tranquillity of the forest. With some steep inclines and declines, not to mention some rather boggy and water laden areas, it was definitely not for the faint hearted. Luckily the weather was on their side, with two days of beautiful sunshine, perfect for exploring. Despite it only being an overnight adventure the students made the most of the experience, returning with smiles the following day.
