Out and About

2019 Steiner Sydney Camp Highlights:

Sydney Harbour Bridge Pylon Museum

I really enjoyed the museum because the history of the bridge is really interesting. I loved all the crazy facts about it. Another thing I loved was the view from the top of the pylon; it was amazing.

Opera House

The opera house looked so much more impressive in the flesh than in photos. It was one of the first times I actually appreciated the architecture of a building. Learning about Jorn Utzon was pretty cool as well.

Daniel

The opera house was an amazing experience, being there and learning about the history. The concert hall had outstanding acoustics and the organ was quite big. The architecture was something to behold especially since it had the largest non-supported concrete beam in the world.

Art Gallery of NSW

I could have spent a whole day at the gallery. There were so many interesting and relatable works. One space I spent a lot of time in had 6 projected screens going in time with music.

Chinatown dinner

On the third night we went out for dinner at a sweet little restaurant called the Nine Dragons. I had eight people at my table and we had the best time eating wonderful food and telling hilarious jokes.

Quarantine Station

I liked the ghost tour because it was fun. It was scary at the time, but now I look back I’m like ‘Ehhh not really’ and I would like to do it again. I liked the autopsy room because it was funny; again it wasn’t at the time, but it is now.

Grand Prix in Melbourne

Students attended the Melbourne Grand Prix in Melbourne as part of their VET-Automotive/Engineering Certificate II Studies. The excursion was organised for the 2019 Australian Grandprix on Friday the 15th of March. The Australian Grand Prix schools program is a community outreach initiative used by the Australian Grand Prix Corporation to encourage young people to understand the science and technology behind the sport of Formula 1 and to attend the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix event hosted in Melbourne. A fantastic day was had by all and the weather was a fine and sunny.
