Students travelled to Stanwell Tops and took part in both challenging and fun activities from the leap of faith, to survivor challenges, to high ropes courses, to abseiling, archery, team building activities and night time activities to name a few. Each activity encouraged students to step outside of their comfort zone, and that our Year 7 group did with enthusiasm and bravery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The camp was also a wonderful opportunity for students to strengthen connections with their MSCW \u2018sisters\u2019, foster positive relationships and further develop their courage and resilience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Year 7 Camp Cup<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> enabled students to gain House points when they demonstrated dimensions of their <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marist Compass for Life<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Throughout the camp students worked through challenges and demonstrated their <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sisterly<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> relationships as they supported each other, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Courage<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> was seen as students took risks and showed their independence,<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Empowerment <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">was key as students became more confident in their abilities and students shared their many<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Gifts <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">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 Chavoin House our 2023 Year 7 Camp Cup winners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-6811 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'>\n<figure

Camp Experience by Emily Barrett, Year 7<\/i><\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The day of camp had finally come. I couldn&#8217;t wait to make new friends, enjoy the company of my current ones and push myself to venture beyond my comfort zone. The week prior I had packed all my clothes and triple checked everything to make sure that I had all that was needed. Before I knew it I was on the bus talking about the day ahead of us. As we alighted from the bus, it struck me how beautiful and calm this place really was. We were thrilled that the tiring bus ride was over and were finally here. My friends and I set out to the meeting room to meet the rest of our grade. Some of the activities I did included archery, vertical cluster, which was a vertical obstacle course where you climb up to however high you want, and survivor. One of my favourite parts of this experience was the night time trivia because I found out my friends\u2019 hidden talents and interests that I didn\u2019t know before. Another thing that I liked about the trivia was the competitiveness of it all and how everyone was just enjoying themselves. My favourite activity was archery, I loved the way that everyone cheered each other on when they got a bullseye or just on the target. Another great thing about camp is people pushing themselves and reaching a new high. In this regard, on the vertical cluster, people would do better and better every single time. But no matter how far you went up people would always encourage one another. This camp was a truly amazing experience and I can not wait to do it all again and more in Year 9. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students travelled to Stanwell Tops and took part in both challenging and fun activities from the leap of faith, to survivor challenges, to high ropes courses, to abseiling, archery, team building activities and night time activities to name a few.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","article_category":[7],"article_tag":[],"class_list":["post-6811","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry","article_category-around-the-college"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/6811","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6811"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6811"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"article_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_category?post=6811"},{"taxonomy":"article_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_tag?post=6811"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
