The day started with the lovely bush sounds of cockatoos procreating in the trees.  It was relatively easy waking up the campers with bacon and egg rolls on the menu, at least for 9D and 9E. The breakfast went down a treat and we were set for what was a day to remember for all.

​

9A outback leader Jacqui Zaccardo again held strong getting her team through the final stage of the kayak. As opposed to the previous day, a nice tail wind assisted their sore bodies greatly. Despite the tough trip, all reports were that the scenery and views across the trip was worth it. 9A also set off on the bushwalk and will be very tired by tomorrow night.

​

9B had a successful day of surfing with some great swell producing ideal conditions for waves. They finished the day with raft building activity that culminated in a highly competitive relay race.

​

9C successfully completed the bushwalk, one of the most challenging aspects of the camp. Despite the warm conditions and unfamiliar surroundings, the group banded together to make it through. See below for one of the more inspiring stories you’ll hear.

​

9D were on a high in the morning session enjoying the views from the trees, completing their high ropes challenge. The day will conclude for 9D with the ‘lifechanging’ solo night.

​

9E’s first activity was underwater ice hockey! Unfortunately, the opposition didn’t turn up, so they decided to go snorkelling for the morning session at the beautiful Port Noarlunga reef.  The weatherman turned it on, and it was a spectacular sunny day with no wind. Snorkelling the reef was an amazing experience with a wide array of fish and wildlife on show. The students were also treated to a raft building session on the beautiful Port Noarlunga beach. The red tomato award for most sunburnt student goes to Joel Day.
