Year 9 Outdoor Education Excursion

Last week Year 9 Outdoor Education students travelled to the You Yangs Regional Park in Little River for an introductory mountain bike session led by Geelong Adventure Specialists.

Trainer Jeremy put students and staff through their paces on some of the almost 50km of mountain bike trails at the You Yangs.

Students learnt how to use a mountain bike safely in preparation for their upcoming camp to the Lorne region next week.


After the riding session, students completed the Branding Yard orienteering course at the park, with 300 points on offer for those who communicated well with their teammates and demonstrated excellent map reading skills.

Guided by only a compass and map of the area our students managed to make their way through the course without getting lost, which was a great effort.

All had an enjoyable day and we now look forward to the upcoming camp.
