International Student Hike

In Term 3 Year 10 Outdoor Rec students completed their exhilarating 5 day hike that they had worked towards all term. Carrying their own gear, departing from Crystal Cascades, 20 brave students , including our International student from Germany, set off. Students hiked between 5-11 hours a day, completing the Varch track to Mt Edith road, canoed across Lake Tinaroo in 25 knot winds, rejoiced when they finally found flushing toilets, camped at Davies Creek & Kauri Creek, met up with the local friendly leeches, spied incredible views from high atop the Lamb Range mountains, and showed champion endurance & courage to the ultimate finish line.

A huge thank you to Mr Johnson and his team for giving our students this fantastic opportunity….

And now for their next challenge…Archery!
