Level 2 Outdoor Education
12OUTE Course DescriptionTeacher in Charge: Ms T. Tanimo.
Recommended Prior LearningStudents must access and complete a course application form from the Year 11 Google Classroom or follow the link at the bottom of this page. This must be handed into Ms Tanimo (TIC of 12 Outdoor Ed) before course confirmation closes.
Please note that selection priority will be given to those students who successfully completed 11PHED in 2024.
This exciting and energetic course focuses on introducing students to Risk Management, Social Responsibility/Leadership skills, and Trip Planning through a range of recreational activities. These concepts are applied through the contexts such as bouldering, Mountain Biking, and Tramping. Students will have multiple trips throughout the year and also attend a week-long camp at the new Hillary Outdoors Pursuit in the Coromandel. The course consists of both theory and practical lessons.
Students must be aware that some camps and trips will be during school time. Students will be selected based on their ability to cope with this and their participation in 11PHED. Please note this course contains high risk activities and students will be vetted for safety purposes. Course endorsement is achievable. The cost of the course in 2024 was $2000. This may change as we confirm trips for 2025.
There is a limited number of students in this course, so handing in the application form is vital.
The standards offered in this course may be altered at the discretion of the Head of Department.
