In this subject students connect with the natural world through outdoor adventure activities. Students learn about themselves, others, and the environment through a series of experiential activities. The subject focuses on self-reliance, resiliency, interdependence, managing personal risks, and the value of life-long outdoor recreation for enjoyment, health and well-being. This subject will involve two full-day practical field trips in the outdoors as well as lectures and tutorials. The practical field trips are physically demanding whilst also extending students mentally and socially. Given the nature of the bushwalking field trips, participants require a moderate level of personal fitness.
