About the Camp

The camp, which runs for 3-4 days, is a great learning experience for students and is a real Australian College experience. It is also an opportunity to get to know one another in a very relaxed, fun atmosphere and form new friendships. The EHS Camp has proved to be a valuable opportunity for staff to get to know the new students and help them settle into their new life in Australia, as well as challenging students and encouraging team work.

Accommodation & Facilities

The accommodation is usually separate dormitory style and functional with facilities similar to what you could expect on a "camping holiday".

What do Student's Learn?

In addition to meeting all their new classmates, students participate in a wide range of sporting activities and can experience the great outdoor life enjoyed by many Australians. They also learn the value of group activity as well as relying on their own skills and personal strengths to complete individual activities. Past camps have included bushwalking, boating and abseiling usually topped off with a traditional campfire in the evening.
