Year 7 Camp

Year 7 Camp is a wonderful opportunity for students to strengthen connections with their MSCW ‘sisters’, foster positive relationships and further develop their courage and resilience. 

It was exciting to see Year 7 students participate in a range of activities last week as part of their Year 7 Camp experience. Students travelled to Stanwell Tops and took part in both challenging and fun activities from the giant swing, to survivor challenges, to high ropes courses, the vertical cluster, archery, team building activities and night time activities to name a few. Each activity encouraged students to support each other and step outside of their comfort zone, which our Year 7 group did with enthusiasm and bravery. 

The Year 7 Camp Cup enabled students to gain House points when they demonstrated dimensions of their Marist Compass for Life. Throughout the camp students worked through challenges and demonstrated their Sisterly relationships as they supported each other, Courage was seen as students took risks and showed their independence, Empowerment was key as students became more confident in their abilities and students shared their many Gifts with their friends and camp groups. The challenge to take home the cup was welcomed by all of Year 7 with joy and eagerness. A big congratulations to Chanel House our 2024 Year 7 Camp Cup winners.
