Director of Tallong Campus

Well, Term 2 has started in a very unusual manner…snow at Tallong in early May! Some 60 students across Years 9-11 arrived at Tallong on Sunday afternoon for a curriculum studies program and were greeted with icy winds and low temperatures. As evening set in the snow began to fall. This Santa Sabina Textiles camp is most likely one of the very few student groups to see snow at Tallong in the history of the campus. A very strange start to Term 2 indeed. 

The Textiles camp at Tallong is a wonderful example of how the campus is utilised across a range of educational experiences. Not only is the campus the venue for a sequential outdoor education program but it is also very well resourced to play host to curriculum studies programs, retreats and numerous other creative endeavours.

This term we welcome the following clients to the Tallong campus: IInternational Grammar School, SCEGGS Redlands, SCEGGS Darlinghurst, St. Paul’s International School and, for the first time later this month, the inaugural Santa Sabina Health and Harmony retreat on the weekend of 27 and 28 May. I believe there are a few spots left for this weekend so please book here if you would like to attend.
