Mt Buffalo Trip











Friday 18th November saw 17 students travel up to Mt Buffalo for a day of Abseiling and Bush walking.  The purpose of this trip was not only to expose our students to new experiences but to mix year groups from junior middles to seniors.  The day was a huge success with many of our students successfully completing a 50m abseil.  Just to be there and witness students having a go was sensational.  Our students displayed beautiful manners and social skills interacting with the public and the 14 University students who ran the activities.  The 14 Adventure ecotourism students were being assessed on their practical skills and used our kids as "Guinea Pigs".  The day was so successful that plans are in place to make it an annual event.  Well done guys you did Belvoir proud and opened the eyes of other students to the benefits of working in a special ed setting.  GO BELVOIR.  A huge thank you to Colleen, Stephen and Karen for their hard work and dedication.
