In Week 3, our Year 12 students participated in a study camp held at the school, designed to help them establish strong study routines and prepare for the pressures of their final year.
The camp featured a mix of structured study sessions, informative presentations, and opportunities to relax and connect. Mr. Corbet-Jones gave presentations on study, motivation and thinking, while Ms. Munro provided important NESA and assessment administration information. Mrs. Easton also joined year 12 on Wednesday morning to encourage students to gather, emphasizing the importance of supporting one another and working closely with teachers throughout the year.
Most of the camp was dedicated to silent study, but students also had opportunities to unwind. In the afternoons students engaged in various sport, creative and quieter pursuits such as, table tennis, board games, soccer, volleyball, art class, and one group crafted small hearts to be used for gifts for babies in NICU. A standout experience was Tuesday’s excursion to Cables Waterpark, where students enjoyed the inflatable obstacle courses and wakeboarding.
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the group of students who volunteered to of cook lunch for their peers and staff on Monday, creating a great sense of teamwork and community.
Throughout the camp, the students were well-behaved, engaged, and encouraging to one another. Their participation in both study and recreational activities reflected their commitment to making the most of the experience. The camp provided an excellent foundation for their Year 12 journey, equipping them with both study strategies and a sense of camaraderie to face the challenges ahead.
