Year 3 - 6 No Boundaries: An Adventure in Learning.
Approximate Cost: TBC
We are thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for your child to embark on an unforgettable experiential learning adventure under the No Boundaries Camp programme!
The No Boundaries programme is a Year 3 to Year 12 continuum, offering progressive opportunities for student agency and action. Starting in Year 3, students will build their resilience, independence and self-management as individuals as well as their teamwork skills through various outdoor activities. This longstanding aspect of our College life utilises Education Outside The Classroom (EOTC) to access forms of learning that cannot be replicated easily in the campus environment.
In partnership with Higher Ground, a series of overnight camps is designed to foster personal growth, resilience, and a deeper connection with the natural world for our year 3, year 4, and year 5 students.
