Since 2016, DIA has provided outdoor learning opportunities where students are engaged with learning activities outside of the classroom.  We surveyed students and parents after that event and have tailored this years’ offer to respond to the feedback. All of the trips and activities on offer will be linked to one or more of the following themes: Creativity, Activity, Service, or Application of Learning.

This year, we will be running local camps for Years 7-11 in December 2024.

Participation in Local Camps is optional. We will be offering activity based learning in school for students not going to camp/retreat. All the camps/retreat will be chaperoned/supervised by DIA Secondary School teachers.

The cost for the trips is listed below. This cost includes all activities, transport, insurance and food.
