Middle School camps take students out of the Darwin Region and into situations where they are required to be quite independent in the way they work with others and manage/care themselves. Camps involve a lot of team building and stretch students in many different ways, broadening their life experiences and providing positive challenges to overcome.
Camps aim to build a sense of unity and team work amongst students. Through varied and rich experiences students are encouraged and stretched mentally and physically. They are positive times for both teachers and students to have fun together and build stronger relationships. Camps are a pivotal part of the curriculum and all students are expected to attend them.
