CCAS Student Collaboration and Connection Summit Camp 2024

From Wednesday to Friday during Week 7, our CPS House Captains had the incredible opportunity to attend the CCAS camp at the Narrabeen Sports and Recreation Centre, to help “flex their leadership muscles.”

This was a truly phenomenal experience for the captains, as they engaged in activities that allowed them to socialise with peers from all over NSW, create strong friendships, and gain valuable teamwork skills. We are so proud of their growth and commitment to leadership!
