camps & Excursions

Children have the opportunity to participate in camps and excursions.  These are planned to link closely to the curriculum being studied, to provide valuable hands on experience. 

Excursions may include visits to local services or day trips to nearby centres. 

Our regular camps include the annual Thargomindah Sports Camp (whole school), Instrumental music camp (music students) and a Biennial visit to Canberra and the snow fields with St Mary’s, Charleville and Sacred Heart in Cunnamulla (for students in year 5 and 6).  Other camps may include cultural, geographic or historical camps to localities such as Brisbane, Toowoomba or other regional areas.
