The VET Sport and Recreation students headed to Anglesea early in term 2 and completed a range of activities relating to the units of competence they had been studying. Students were dropped in two groups in the middle of the Iron Bark Basin and were then required to follow a route plan they had developed prior to the camp. One group took a bit longer to navigate their way to the lunch check point – and not because they had the one student in the-all abilities wheel chair! Students then raced to the Emueralla Scout camp site. Later that evening, the students heard from a local Indigenous leader who taught the students about some cultural practises and history of Cape Otway.
On the second day students navigated around mountain bike circuit, completed initiatives activities, as well as participating in a stand up paddle board session around the Anglesea river area. The evening activities involved campfire stories, a tribal council and some survivor themed games!
On the final day students navigated their way through the Iron Bark Basin to the meeting point at Bells Beach, where they boarded the bus and headed back to the hustle and bustle of Kew.
