Year 6 Canberra Camp

Date: 09 - 11 April 2025
Time: 6:30 AM-4:00 PM
Location: Canberra

Our Year 6 Canberra excursion is an outstanding opportunity for your child to further their knowledge and understanding of The Australian Parliament, as well as develop their independence and group-working skills. Students will engage in a meaningful and extensive itinerary developed by teachers to support their learning in a range of curriculum areas, including a visit to the Australian War Memorial, The Australian Institute of Sport, Questacon, National Museum, National Arboretum, Museum of Australian Democracy, Parliament House and Mount Ainslie lookout. The excursion will be held Wednesday 9th, Thursday 10th, Friday 11th April. We will be departing from school Wednesday 9 April at 6.30am and returning to school Friday 11 April at approx. 4pm (dependent on traffic). The Australian Government recognises the importance of all young Australians being able to visit the national capital as part of their civics and citizenship education. To assist families in meeting the cost of the excursion, the Australian Government is contributing funding to our school in the amount of $30 per student under the Parliament and Civics Education Rebate program towards those costs. This brings the total amount per child to $400 for the excursion. Children will be staying at the Golden Age Motor Inn 56 Macquoid St, Queanbeyan NSW 2620. We will provide important reminders and updates closer to the camp. To secure your child's place, please complete the permission and medical information by Friday 7 March, along with a $50 deposit. You will be billed the full amount of the camp upfront. However, you can elect to pay by instalments in whatever amounts you wish, providing full payment is made by Monday 31 March. Alternatively, you can pay the full amount upfront. If you require financial assistance, please contact Linda Turner (School Admin Manager) or Debra Lade (School Principal). Parents have been sent a Permission note with further details via SchoolBytes with a request for payment of $400.
