As part of the transition process into High School, a camp has been planned for 2021 Year 7 students. The camp will take place in Term 1 Week 8 2021. 

Campers and staff will depart from school by bus on Wednesday 17th March 2021 at 7.30am, and will return Friday 19th March 2021 by 3pm. 

Students are to be collected from the school gates and not the bus bays on Glenwood Park Drive. Students who are permitted to walk home must be clearly indicated on the permission slip. 

Over the course of the camp students will: 

• Participate in team building and co-operative activities

• Enjoy a variety of outdoors sports such as rope climbing, raft building & kayaking

• Undergo challenge courses such as the high ropes, giant swing and flying fox

• Enjoy the "Commando Quest" and a games night during the evenings

• Extend their friendships as they get to know Year 7 students in other classes

During all activities, students will be supervised by Glenwood High staff, in addition to experienced and trained camp leaders.

Cost : We estimate that the cost will be $350.00. This includes meals, accommodation, day & night activities, transport and Stage 4 well-being programs. The cost may vary due to the number of students that elect to attend camp.

Our preferred method of payment is our Parent Online System - (POP). Please note, you are welcome to pay the complete amount at any time. The total balance is to be paid prior to Friday 121h of March 2021 (Term 1, Week 7).
