Year 10 Camp - Lake Okataina • News • Forest View High School



Year 10 camp was held at Lake Okataina with the purpose of giving the students an outdoor experience and improving their understanding of the outdoors and how to better utilise their surroundings. Students worked together to complete kayaking, mountain biking and tramping tasks set in the native bush in the local area. At night students took turns sleeping out in the bush whilst cooking their own food, preparing their own tents and safely controlling bush fires for warmth in the near zero temperatures. On the last day, the weeks worth of skill building was tested in a final search and rescue adventure race where students conducted 6 operations to reinforce their bush skills. Thankyou to all students and teachers who attended. Bring on Year 9 Camp in December!
