These fun and meaningful experiences were led by our fantastic Year 10 leaders alongside Mr Chris Walker, who supported and encouraged the students throughout the camp. A special thank you to our P&F for providing a delicious dinner and generous breakfast, which were greatly appreciated by all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the highlights for the students was the exciting opportunity to sleep at school with their friends. They enjoyed setting up their sleeping bags side by side, sharing stories and building lasting memories together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Walker told Veritas Voice<\/em> that, ‘the action-packed schedule was designed to give our students a positive introduction to outdoor education, teamwork and problem-solving.’ <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ‘Divided into groups, the children dove headfirst into an array of exciting nature-play and cooperative activities. From setting up campsites and pitching tents on the field to creating beautiful stick sculptures and building shelters for their toys, creativity was at an all-time high. A highlight was the Slack Line where they got to balance and have a great time.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n ‘As the sun began to set, the excitement only grew. After a delicious pizza and popcorn dinner, those staying overnight wound down with a fun trivia night and a game of Spotlight around Del Monte. We wrapped up the beautiful evening with a peaceful Rosary and a bedtime story before everyone settled down for a cozy night’s sleep in the school. Another highlight of the day was Cheffery\u2019s baked muffins and the visit from Mr Hann and Mr Fox who came all the way up from Tallong for the day.’<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n On the final day, students reflected on their camp experience during a meaningful Bravery Star<\/em> activity. To conclude our time together, we gathered for a beautiful liturgy, thoughtfully prepared by Mrs Nicotina, where we gave thanks to God and celebrated the students\u2019 bravery, courage and growing friendships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cara Bingham, Christina Mazis, Tina Nicotina, Catherine McGrath<\/strong> Tallong comes to Del Monte OUr Year 2 students recently enjoyed their first school camping experience through the Tallong Comes to Del Monte program.
