Year 9 Students SHINE on Camp

03.11.21

Last week, from 24-29 October, Year 9 students participated in the annual 9SHINE camp experience.

9SHINE is a year-long learning experience and a unique educational adventure that teaches valuable life skills in Gratitude, Empathy, and Mindfulness. The 9SHINE experience is viewed as a step or rite of passage to a rewarding adult life. Through 9SHINE, Tenison Woods College students have developed personal qualities beyond those possible in a traditional schooling environment whilst developing their overarching sense of Community. The 9SHINE program culminates with a 6 day/5 night Outdoor Experience throughout the Southern Fleurieu. The Outdoor Experience has achieved it's goals through the principle of experiential learning experiences that have been proven to engage students beyond traditional learning styles.

While on the camp, students were given an opportunity to engage in a range of activities including bushwalking, fishing and kayaking.
