March 2023 THE BOOK | 2022 - 2023

This year, students in Year 4 attended the North Star Dibba Camp for their residential. It was an incredible opportunity for the students to show their character, strength, and bravery, which was our concept for the spring term.

While at the camp, students developed their water skills by raft-building and kayaking, as well as zip-lining, abseiling, and rock climbing to the height they felt most comfortable.

Team work was a key element to the trip as they had the chance to compete in beach games and had to work together to keep their dorms tidy. Being away from home was an important milestone for many of the students and they blew the teachers and staff away with their resilience and openness to try new things that came their way. It was an action-packed 24 hours and the memories they made will get them ready for their future residentials.

Residential was super exciting. On the first day, we got to complete water activities like kayaking and beach games. In the evening, we got to have a yummy dinner. I enjoyed the camp songs and I loved hanging out with my cabin group.

I really liked abseiling. At first I found it challenging, but I overcame my fear of heights. Also, I loved the rock climbing because I pushed myself to go higher and out of my comfort zone. After going a quarter of the way up, I persevered and kept going to halfway. It was so much fun staying with my friends and chatting throughout the night. The food was amazing - the burger was delicious!
