School excursions are an important and effective means of motivating students and engaging them in active learning experiences.  A range of excursions, incursions, speakers and productions further enhance learning experiences for students.  Excursions are linked to a unit of work being undertaken in classrooms and performances by visiting groups enhance learning across many domains. 

 

School camps are a valuable aspect of a fully rounded program of development for students.  They provide educational experiences unable to be catered for in a school environment as well as opportunities for physical development, social interaction, independences and resilience.  Our school camps include:

 

• 3 day Leadership Camp at Mapleton (Years 5) – an annual event providing learning opportunities in varied recreational activities and sites of educational interest.

• 5 day Canberra Tour (Year 6) – a traditional opportunity for senior students to experience the political culture and national exhibitions in Canberra.
