Senior Outdoor Recreation
Senior Outdoor Recreation (OREC) courses are unique and valued courses that mirror the special character of our school and utilise the surrounding local area. They are designed to introduce and develop basic outdoor skills and knowledge in the areas of kayaking, conservation, bushcraft, tramping and mountaincraft/snowcraft. It is hoped that participation in the course will develop a respect and love for the uniqueness of our natural environment. Outdoor Recreation are primarily practical courses that assess your ability and understanding in a variety of disciplines. Our Junior Students participate in exciting activities through Greenstone Camp and Branches. Scroll down to find out more. |
