The Year 5 camp to Camp Sunnystones and Sovereign Hill was an immersive blend of outdoor adventure and living history. Students pushed their boundaries through rock climbing, canoeing, archery, and geocaching, while bonding over treats with Israeli Madrichim and energetic Ruach dances led by Year 10 mentors. History sprang to life at Sovereign Hill through the AURA night show, gold panning, candle making, and interactive Gold Fever roleplaying. From exploring nature to stepping back into the 1850s gold rush, the trip fostered personal growth, connection, and unforgettable hands-on learning.
