Outdoor education programs have been an integral part of the CCGS experience since the school's early days.

While locations and activities have evolved over the years, the core value of these experiences remains unchanged: challenging students to step beyond their comfort zones and grow.

This year, some of our alumni reached a special milestone when they sent their own children off on the very same camps they once attended, creating a full-circle moment of tradition and shared experience.

One such alumnus is Tony Ryan (2001), pictured at his Year 4 camp in 1993. Looking back at the moment, he recalls, “I remember that day at Riverwood Downs very well. It was the first time I tried fishing with a line. You can see Mr Clugston in the background trying to sort out another tangled fishing line!” Now, decades later, Tony’s son embarked on his first off-site camp.While fishing wasn’t on the agenda, he took part in raft building, archery, damper making, and kayaking, building memories of his own.

Another alumnus, foundation student Lee Bailey is pictured helping at a camp as a Year 12 student in 1989. This year, his daughter Piper (Year 9) set off to Glenworth Valley, where, along with her peers, she tested her courage and resilience through horse riding, hiking, abseiling, and more.
