Big Day Out – Year 8 ‘Building Positive Connections’
‘The Year 8 Big Day Out was held at Torquay Front Beach on the 22 April. We all loved the food, activities and the quality time we spent with each other. After a morning full of walking and doing a scavenger hunt in the sun, we all played in the park, ate chips for lunch, ice-cream for dessert and headed back to school on the bus, we were tired but had the best day!’

- The girls listened to each other and was very inclusive of everyone in the group – each student’s opinion was valued and listened to and they all work together as a team to complete the challenges
