Year 8 Werribee Zoo Excursion
On Tuesday 1st November, all year 8 students made a trip to Werribee Zoo to enjoy a great self-paced and directed exploration journey throughout the enclosures as well the safari.
Students saw a great variety of animals up close and personal while learning about their habitats and mannerisms. All students represented our school in a great manner and should be proud of how they conducted themselves.

Year 8 MCG Excursion
On Monday 7th November, all year 8's were provided the opportunity to go tour and explore the world-renowned stadium that is in our own backyard - the MCG!
This was in relation to our term 3 sport of AFL and our Term 4 sport of cricket. All students were given the opportunity to have a guided tour through the MCG, including front row seats, meeting rooms, corporate boxes, and the long room.
Following this, students were offered the opportunity to engage in their own exploration through the Australian sports museum. All before finishing off the day by trying to beat previous high scores in the interactive games section of the museum.

Year 9/10 Outdoor Ed Camp
On the Wednesday 26th of October, year 9/10 Outdoor Ed headed out to the Brisbane Ranges for our 3 day hike.
We had been preparing for over 10 weeks and the students tackled the tough terrain exceptionally well.
Throughout the three days, students and staff had to endure the 40km+ trek with everything on or in their packs. This included their clothing, food and camping equipment while navigating their way though tough terrain with rocky and muddy hills and valleys with the additional river crossings due to the recent floods.
Overall the camp was a huge success and one that students will remember well after their schooling. Big thanks for all involved including Mr Relouw, Ms Hill and Mr Goward for running such a dynamic camp.
