Director of Tallong Campus

Last week Tallong had the pleasure of hosting our Year 7 students on their outdoor education program.

This year the program was a four-day experience where the students’ comfort zones were challenged and they learnt important life skills of leading self, leading others and stewardship for our natural world. In previous years the Year 7 Outdoor Education Experience has been three days, so this year an extra day allowed for further learning sessions to be built into the program. which from all accounts were received very well. The extra day also helps build the students’ resilience and allows for deeper relationships to be developed across their cohort.

In the last Veritas Voice article I was able to talk about the success of the Tallong open day and highlight the opportunities for the Santa Sabina College community to engage with Tallong this year. We can now announce that we are holding dates for the well-established parent/child camp at Tallong. A camp that has been running at Tallong for almost 20 years. The dates for this year’s parent/child camp are 11/12 November 2023. So please put a placeholder in your diary and more information will be forthcoming later this year.
