5/6 CAMP 2025
From Monday to Wednesday, our Year 5/6 students attended the Anglesea Discovery Camp and had an unforgettable experience. Over the three days, students immersed themselves in a wide range of exciting activities including bush cooking, mountain biking, archery, canoeing, the beach carnival, and building some very impressive sandcastles. They also enjoyed games of cricket and soccer on the beach, as well as thrill-seeking activities like the vertical challenge, giant swing, skateboarding, and the ever-popular crate climb.
Despite a bit of rain on Wednesday, spirits remained high. Some students took part in Radio Rogaine, a fast-paced scavenger hunt that had them exploring all over camp.
In between all the action, everyone was treated to delicious meals and fun evening activities, including a cosy pyjama movie night and a lively trivia session.
It was an incredible few days filled with teamwork, resilience, and plenty of laughter—an experience the students will remember for years to come. Please see some of the photos from each group below the Medicine and Lost Property information.
Medicine
If your child had medicine on camp and you are still yet to collect it- please see Ruki in the office to retrieve it. We cannot return any medicine to your child to take home, it must be handed to an adult.
Lost Property
There was a lot of things left behind on camp that we have collected. Some photos will be posted onto Dojo Monday morning. If it belongs to your child, we can send it home with them, otherwise anything that is not claimed by Friday next week will be binned.
We also have a HUGE container of lost property in LC4. If your child is missing a school jumper or jacket PLEASE come into LC4 and search through the tub. Any unclaimed items will be donated to the second hand uniform shop in Week 11.
