Rain, hail or beaming sunshine, the Year 7 2022 Camp was a great time away at Teen Ranch for our Year 7 Cohort.

By far, students and teachers alike loved the exhilaration that was had on the giant swing, followed closely by horse riding and the famous glow-in-the-dark and fluoro disco.   

Mrs Cordina and Mrs Severino enjoyed playing DJ on Camp One, with Mr Houghton pulling out some of his personal favourite tunes, (namely the macarena) during the disco on Camp Two.

Teamwork was paramount with all activities, particularly the giant swing where students needed to work together to pull their peers up as high as they could go. 

All teachers except Ms Tolhurst had a go at the giant swing - there is nothing quite like falling more than 8 metres from the sky with Year 7 watching on!

We were treated to some beautiful rainbows after some stormy weather, some awesome sunsets and amazing views, and beautiful sunshine for perfect pool weather. We had some heavy rain which made horse riding, the giant swing and climbing the tower even more adventurous. I am sure parents and carers alike could see the fun that was had with muddy washing that was sent home!

Year 7 proved to be ‘on point’ with their bullseye, with several students popping the balloon with their bow and arrow shots.

Though not much sleep was had, the students that went to Teen Ranch left with full bellies after all the fantastic food they were treated to, mainly the dessert and supper cookies and cakes! 

Thank you to all those involved in enabling close to 200 of our Year 7 Cohort to participate in this amazing camp. Students made new friends, whilst keeping their old friends, and memories that will sure last them a lifetime!

Who’s looking forward to camp in Year 9 now!
