Year 7 Camp

All the action from Phillip Island

A highlight of the Year 7 program, our Phillip Island Adventure Camp is a great bonding experience for the students, giving them a chance to start forging new friendships and to challenge themselves physically. The weather provided some of the challenges, but the rain couldn't dampen the fun of the classic adventure camp activities with the giant swing rating a big mention!

Camp was definitely the highlight of my year so far. I felt so free and in charge of my schedule (which is unusual to find when you are only 12 years old)! It was a rare experience to be able to have a sleepover with all my friends in my class for two consecutive nights. Sharing a room was great for bond building because of all the truth or dare games and secrets that you shared just before bed. The activities were epic in every way. Exhilarating is the only word that comes to mind when I think of the camp activities. From the giant swing to raft making, every activity made me feel challenged (in different ways) beyond my normal comfort zone.
