Year 7 Camp
Cecil Hills High School
In Week 2, Year 7 students had the opportunity to partake in a three-day Great Aussie Bush Camp in Tea Gardens. A range of fun activities including archery, giant swing, kayaking, pioneering, flying fox, mud world and night commando were facilitated by qualified instructors.
This camp allowed our students to:
- Step out of their comfort zone
- Engage in new experiences
- Conquer their fears
- Learn new skills
- Demonstrate exceptional teamwork
- Foster new friendships and strengthen existing bonds
- Build rapport amongst the cohort
The response from Year 7 students has been overwhelmingly positive. Here are what some of the students had to say about their overall experience:
“The highlight of camp for me was the fun, exciting and adventurous activities.”
- Elise Carroll
“Camp was exciting and fun. I encourage next year’s Year 7s to go so they don’t miss out on a great experience!” - Jason Chheang
“The best experience for us was the mud run. It was fun putting it on people’s faces and doing the obstacle courses.” – Hannah Wrage and Monique Shah
“My favourite experience from the camp was spending time with my friends and getting to know others in my group.” - Jeyda Kurtonal
A huge thank you to the supervising teachers - Mr Dunn, Ms Sentic and Mr Lee - who accompanied the Year Advisers on this camp. Without teachers like these, such events are not possible.
