The grounds also include bush areas and open spaces that can be used for team-building challenges and environmental studies.
One of the camp’s strengths is its flexibility. Programmes can be tailored to suit curriculum outcomes or school priorities, whether the focus is on outdoor education, environmental awareness, leadership or spiritual development. The site is managed with a strong emphasis on safety, ensuring teachers and leaders have clear support for planning and running activities.
