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!
Camping
Camping
Camping out in tents is our speciality! We love telling stories around the campfire, looking up at the night sky and creating memories that will last a lifetime!
Canoeing
Canoeing
Following the flow of the river, we love to explore the waterways on our canoes. Working as a team, using our muscles and problem-solving together to reach our base for the night.
Initiatives
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!
Marine Discovery
Marine Discovery
Looking at a peaceful pond is nice but we'd rather learn about the ecosystems thriving in it. We may also get out hands a little dirty but we think that's the best way to learn!
Surfing
Surfing
First we try our skills on the sand, then we take our boards to the shallows and test our balance, determination and courage!
