OUTDOOR EDUCATION EXTENSION PROGRAMS

Throughout the year, the Outdoor Education team run various programs outside of normal school hours, and outside the core OED programs (year level camps).  The aims are to offer students:

• An opportunity to extend on skills and activities that are introduced in the core OED program
• A chance to try activities and / or explore places that are unable to be included in the core OED program
• A way to meet and mix with like minded students, of different year levels, who share a love of the outdoors and adventure.

For all information regarding our extension programs, please get in touch with Ben Woolhouse, Head of Outdoor Education, benjamin.woolhouse@stleonards.vic.edu.au
