Throughout Term 4, the Year 10 Outdoor Education class has been learning about different coastal environments and aquatic activities and were lucky enough to head away to the Surf Coast for an overnight camp. Although the weather conditions weren’t ideal, the camp was still jam-packed with activities.
Day one saw students along with Ms Danni Webb, Mr Sam Waters, Miss Jessica Duff and Miss Emily Franken travel to the Marine Discovery Centre in Queenscliff to learn about aquatic animals and their adaptions, followed by a very exciting scuba diving session with Dive Victoria. Students' resilience was tested that evening, having to set up their tents and equipment in the pouring rain, but their teamwork and positivity prevailed with everyone managing to have a dry night's sleep.
Day two was an early start and a short drive to the beautiful beaches of Torquay, where students spent many hours learning to surf the waves of 'Cosy Corner'. Overall, the camp was a great success and students enjoyed and embraced learning outside of a regular classroom.
