ORIENTATION CAMP (GRADE 8)

COME AND GET PIECE OF MIND FOR THE NEW YEAR

 

We want to create an opportunity for new learners in grade 8 to get to know one another and understand their new environment. Sunshine, socializing, new experiences… wonderful memories… lots of new friends… and great fun !!

 

PURPOSE OF THE CAMP

The opportunity for registered teachers to meet and interact with their class. Through the program, we can facilitate a faster and stronger bonding opportunity over a short space of time. The program and the camp facilities allow for teachers and facilitators to monitor behavior, interaction & activities to ensure a safe and respectful engagement.

We do not want to replace the schools’ own Orientation programs. It is complementary to preparing new Grade 8 learners, along with learners from other schools, for the realities and challenges of the new school environment and life.

 

A MUST FOR GRADE 8 – LEARNERS!

We believe that attending the camp will really benefit the new learners, and therefore we request schools to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. We undertake that a school’s group will spend sufficient time with each other as a group, but that there will also be enough interaction with other schools’ learners.

 

The camp fees include: comfortable accommodation; delicious meals; relevant topics, canoeing on the Orange River, hiking, games, etc.…

 

PROGRAM

The program will be finalized later. Get smart and street-wise about: Adjustments into high school, peer pressure; social media; healthy relationships; choices and temptations; friends & parties; concerns, and the academic part of things.
