Students will be placed in groups of no more than 12 students per group. Each group will be accompanied by a Yarra Valley Grammar School staff member and an OEG staff member for the entire Camp. Students will camp at Tidal River for three nights and one night at Oberon Bay, they will sleep in tents every night and have an opportunity to cook meals for the group.

Activities

Bushwalking
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!
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!
