Year 9 Rite Journey Camp - A Journey of Courage and Resilience 🌟
At the end of last term, our Year 9 students stepped well outside their comfort zones during the Rite Journey Camp, taking on a range of exciting challenges and growth experiences.
From kayaking along the Murray River and hiking with full packs to conquering a high ropes course, cooking on Trangias, camping under the stars, and spending time in reflection during their Solo Experience, students showed remarkable courage, resilience and determination.
While there were plenty of challenges along the way (including mud, mosquitoes, cold nights and some memorable Trangia meals!), what stood out most was the way students encouraged and supported one another. They celebrated successes, lent a helping hand when needed, and faced each challenge together.
We are incredibly proud of the kindness, perseverance and maturity our students demonstrated throughout the camp. It was a powerful reminder of what young people can achieve when they embrace new experiences and support each other along the journey.
💬 Grace reflected: "Camp was actually really fun, and it was a lot better than I expected. We did many activities that were definitely challenging, but I feel very proud of myself for doing it. My favourite part was spending time with my friends and getting to know them better."
What an amazing group of young people! 👏🏕️🚣♂️
