At our school, children are provided with a variety of academic, cultural, sporting and social opportunities outside of the classroom. These opportunities are designed to enrich our classroom-based experiences. Additional costs are associated with the majority of these experiences. Payment plans are available.
Camps
Each year, students in Year 5 and 6 participate in camping programs as a part of the curriculum.
Year 5 students attend a 3 day, 2 night program at a local venue.
Year 6 students attend a 3 day, 2 night program at a different venue to their previous camp.
Excursions and incursions
In every grade, children are offered the opportunity to further enrich their learning by participating in excursions off site or incursions on the school grounds. Previously these included Mooloola Foreshore, Maroochy Wetlands, Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve and Bankfoot House.
Water Safety Program

Children in Year 5 and 6 are offered the opportunity to participate in surf skills lessons in term 4. These lessons are conducted by Surf Lifesaving instructors at one of our local beaches.
