Summiting Success: 

The Year 9 Outdoor Education group recently returned from a thrilling and highly successful trip to Mt Pilot National Park in Victoria, where they tested their limits with rock climbing and abseiling.

The picturesque granite outcrops of Mt Pilot provided the perfect setting for students to engage with some challenging vertical adventures. Our students showed remarkable courage and teamwork as they tackled various routes designed to push them outside their comfort zones.

The abseiling component was a huge hit, with many students overcoming initial nerves to successfully make the descent. The sense of achievement upon reaching the bottom was palpable! The climbing routes offered a diverse test of strength, technique, and problem-solving. It was inspiring to witness students cheering each other on, offering advice, and celebrating every small victory, reinforcing the value of trust and mutual support inherent in outdoor pursuits.
