The Middle School Outdoor Education class were again getting active outdoors on March 18.

Well done to all of the students who ventured out on our explorations this past weekend.

Well done to all our students on their weekend hike held earlier this month; they ended up walking over 50km for the whole weekend with their back packs; walking up and down over difficult terrains and river crossings.

This week our Middle School Outdoor Education class has been busy spending time outside experiencing a range of tasks to support their in-class learning.

Congratulations go Liam Weir, Jack McVay and Thomas Burgess for completing their Bronze Award.

It was a special day on Friday 4th December - it was the first time all year for our current Silver and Gold groups to meet and complete some training.

The students had very warm conditions to add to their challenges for the day, but they did not complain.

Congratulations Compass Award Students – you have completed your exploration day in your local environments.

Our Compass and Duke of Ed students continue to work in areas of their award, completing their physical activities, skills and services around their homes.

Well done to the students for their excellent behaviour, respect and application during our cooking on the campfire activity held on Monday 22nd June. It is always our passion to complete as many activities as we can in the outdoors, so we organised the cooking of jaffles, spiced apples and obviously marshmallows with a camp fire.

During the first half of this term while we were all working from home, I ran an activity to encourage students and staff to all get outside for a period of time.

Well done to the students in Middle School Outdoor Ed for their great work during our recent mountain bike sessions!
