Fun and Teamwork at Year 8 Camp

October 31, 2024
On Wednesday 23 October, 145 eager Year 8 students stood in the dark on the basketball courts eager to set off on an adventure.

The 6 am departure meant an early start for students, parents and teachers and many boys took the opportunity to make up for the early start with a nap during the 3 hour journey to Shell Cove.

Killalea State Park is located between a river and two beautiful surf beaches and the boys really raised their step count walking to activities including surfing lessons, canoeing, snorkelling and beach sports. Evenings were spent cooking and playing trivia in their camp groups.

Staff were impressed by student’s positive attitude, willingness to give things a go and the way the boys supported each other.

A huge thank you to all of the teachers who gave up their time to make this possible and to the administration staff who worked very hard to ensure we had everything we needed for a terrific camp.
