As a part of our camp program Grade 5/6 students will be attending Canberra this year.  The camp is for 5 days and 4 nights and includes all transport, accomodation, activities and food.

 

The itinerary will include visits to Parliament House, The National Archive Museum (See the Past, Be the Future), Canberra's National Museum (Meet the People), The Australian Botanical Gardens (Budding Botanist Program), Museum of Australian Democracy (People, Power and Making Change), 2 visits to The Australian Intsitute of Sport (Sportex tour as well as evening swim), ANZAC parade, The National Art Gallery (stories of Australian Art), The National Electoral Education Centre, The Royal Australian Mint, Questacon, The National Portrait Gallery, The Canberra Arboretum and The Australian War Memorial.

 

Our hot dog fundraising days were successful in contributing some savings for students. After final calculations, which includes the $45 PACER rebate, the cost of camp will be $700 per student. We understand this is a busy time of year so wanted to give as much notice as possible. 

 

If you would like to pay off in instalments, please use the BPAY or Direct Deposit details on your family statement and payments will be marked off against Xuno balance.

 

Please note: payment in full is required prior to your child attending camp.

Please contact the office with any enquiries.
