The children have many opportunities to participate in a variety of extra-curricular programs.

Excursions

Major excursions were realigned with the Stage 3 curriculum so that a two-year rotation could be incorporated into these events. Each year, Stage 3 students travel to locations relevant to their curriculum (e.g. Bathurst as part of their ‘Gold’ Focus, Canberra as part of their ‘Australian Democracy’ Focus). Other stages follow up major units of work with excursions into the local community.
