St Dominic the Adventurer

Last Wednesday, our Year 4 students gathered for their final St Dominic the Adventurer session before heading off to the much-anticipated Tallong weekend on Saturday 25 October. The students practised essential outdoor skills – knots and lashings – in preparation for one of the weekend’s highlight activities: catapult building!

Under our guidance, students worked in teams to master the techniques needed to construct sturdy and functional knots. These hands-on skills not only foster collaboration and problem-solving but also tie beautifully into the spirit of adventure and resilience that St Dominic the Adventurer aims to instil.

The Tallong weekend will culminate in a special moment: the awarding of the St Dominic the Adventurer badge. This badge is a symbol of each student’s growth, courage and commitment throughout the program. We are incredibly proud of our Year 4s and look forward to celebrating their achievements in the great outdoors.
