Outdoor Education

Learning takes place inside and outside the classroom. MacKillop College offers its students an extensive and challenging Outdoor Education program for all Year 7 to 9 students. Senior students interested in Outdoor and Environmental Studies can elect to study it at the Year 10 and VCE level.

Students participate in activities such as: bush cooking, hiking, map reading and orienteering, bush safety and canoeing, rock climbing and cross country skiing.

Our Outdoor Education program provides students with an opportunity to develop:

An awareness of the environment
Personal responsibility and team-work skills
Community spirit
Leadership and problem-solving skills and
Recreational skills

To take advantage of Victoria's diverse environment different venues are selected for the Outdoor Education program. The Otway Ranges, the Grampians, Mt Stirling and the Goulburn River are examples of experiences by our students.
