School Camp
Our Year 3-6 students had a fantastic time at last week’s
school camp at the Outdoor Education site at Morisset. They
returned exhilarated, exhausted and with increased confidence
after a series of mental and physical challenges.
Our happy campers participated in archery, climbed a high
rope challenge, learned about bushcraft, tried their hands at
fencing, plummeted at 60km/h down a dual flying fox, scaled a
10m rock climbing wall, challenged each other in orienteering
and were dropped from a 13m giant swing!
Islington, as always, participated in all activities with great
enthusiasm and enjoyment. It was a pleasure to see such
happy kids having such a great time. We will definitely be going
back in the future.

Newcastle Excursion 1-2L On Monday 1/2L went on an excursion into the city with Mr Bell, Miss A and Miss Wagstaff. At the beginning of the day at school we went up the stairs to the classroom and put on sunscreen then got into our groups and went down the stairs and out the gate! We started walking to Hamilton train station and hopped on the train. When we hopped off the train we went to Fort Scratchley. At Fort Scratchley we saw cannons and guns. We had a break and something to eat and had a look around at the museum. Then we went to the beach and we made sculptures made of sand and then we smashed them! Then we emptied out our shoes and walked up the break wall and we saw Mr Bell's art and 3 seals. After that we went back to the train station and when we got back to school we sat down, had something to eat and then it was home time. We had a fantastic day! Mia Kennedy
