Bushwalking

Be it a day's hike or a short walk to camp, bushwalking engages all our senses allowing us to explore nature and our place within it. And we always find something exciting along the way!

Cycling

A favourite activity among our team, cycling along a windy track together or playing group games builds resilience and independence in young people.

Rock Climbing

Rock climbing on a climbing wall or up a rockface invites students to set their own goals, step by step they develop confidence even if they don’t make it to the top in the beginning.

Initiatives

Our many initiatives can be large or small group activities on the land or water, encouraging social connection, negotiation, problem-solving and adaptability, all while having fun!

Low Ropes
