From the last day of school celebrations to coastal adventures, our Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award students had a fantastic time on the Murramarang South Coast Walk (MSCW) for their final adventurous journey of 2024! 

The 34-kilometre, Grade 4 trail, running from Pretty Beach in the north to Maloneys Beach in the south, is a hidden gem of the South Coast. With its stunning coastal views, pristine beaches and rugged terrain, the MSCW provided the perfect setting for students to test their resilience and teamwork.

 

Camping under the stars, navigating diverse landscapes and overcoming physical challenges, the students displayed courage, determination and camaraderie. This journey was not just about reaching the finish line but about personal growth, teamwork and creating lasting memories. 

Staff praised the students for their positive attitudes and unwavering commitment throughout the adventure. The experience embodied the core values of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, showcasing students’ ability to adapt, collaborate and thrive in a challenging environment.
