Our Great Aussie Bush Camp will take place in Term 4, Week 1: Monday 19th to Wednesday 21st October, 2009.
The Great Aussie Bush Camp is located near Tea Gardens and camp activities make the most of the local attractions such as Main Beach and Jimmy’s Beach, as well as Mount Yacaaba and local Dolphin Cruise companies. The camp is also a short drive from Mungo Brush, nearby rainforests, the Dark Point middens site and associated sand dunes.
All of the activities at camp are operated on the ‘Challenge by Choice’ principle. That means each individual chooses how much they participate in the activity and ultimately how much they are challenged. All of the activities at camp are also designed to build on four separate C’s. These are:
- Coordination
