Outdoor Education
NCC Students Engage in a Diverse and Rewarding Academic Life
Preparing students for a successful future starts at a young age. A strong curriculum combined with a stimulating learning environment has seen NCC consistently achieve outstanding academic results.
Outdoor Education
Outdoor Education is seen as an important component of the Nambour Christian College curriculum. Camps, both on the Sunshine Coast and further afield, have been carefully designed to complement one another and have been sequenced for gradual acceptance by children/parents who have not experienced times of separation. Throughout the school, there are compulsory year level leadership camps/day which contribute to the holistic approach of student’s education. Each of the camps/day offer a range of experiences considered important to help prepare our students, not only for the current year they are in, but for life after school.
The Outdoor Education Program allows the further development of social, physical, spiritual, emotional and leadership skills in our students.
