Benefits of Bushcraft Day

Bushcraft Day is a great opportunity for Year 7 students to learn new skills, make new friends, and have some fun in the great outdoors. Some of the benefits of Bushcraft Day include:

  • Learning new skills: Students will learn how to build shelters, start fires, cook food, and identify plants and animals. These skills can be used in a variety of settings, such as camping, hiking, and survival situations.
  • Making new friends: Students will be split into small groups and will have the opportunity to work together and get to know each other. This can help to build friendships and create a sense of community.
