It was an action-packed week of epic outdoor adventures and cultural experiences.

The students made many memories, including:

Morning canyoning across rivers and through bush to reach their first waterfall.
Learning about the history of places and people. Their guide, Joe, performed the Haka and shared the cultural significance of many Māori traditions.
Exploring Arrowtown, a small historic gold town close to Queenstown, along with Milford Sound.
Racing down the luge after going up the gondola.

The trip provided a great opportunity for the boys to develop teamworking and leadership skills.
