The team had a great morning getting to know each other at the Duncraig campus today. Our teamwork skills were put to the test with a challenging block building activity, followed by some fire making practice. We enjoyed each others company around the fire and began thinking about some campfire games we might play on the tour. We finished the session with some basic first aid skills, led by the wonderful Duncraig Nurse Erica. We discussed sun safety, snakes, spiders, ticks, allergies/Epipen use, open fire safety and bush safety.

Before our next session, we encourage students to continue practicing their cooking skills, and to think of a range of activities they can do while they are on the bus.

If you require any additional information, please contact any of the tour staff: Mr Matthew Sloan (matthew.sloan@ststephens.wa.edu.au); Miss Hannah Uglow (hannah.uglow@ststephens.wa.edu.au); Mr Ted Lewis (ted.lewis@ststephens.wa.edu.au); or Mrs Kim Luinstra (kimberley.luinstra@ststephens.wa.edu.au).

We look forward to seeing you all at our next Team Building Session in Week 4 (Thursday 19 August).

Hi everyone,

You should have received a Consent 2 Go notification for our two cross-campus training sessions. These sessions are on June 17 (at Duncraig) and August 19 (at Carramar). Both sessions will be from 8:30am- 12:30pm (including time for travel). If students have any regularly scheduled lessons (i.e. music or tutoring), it is up to the parents to let the tutors know of your child’s absence.

As discussed at the information night, the primary purpose of these sessions is to get to know each other and build a sense of team. In addition to this, we will be learning to set up our swags, practicing our cooking skills and fire making skills (if weather permits).

Students are not required to bring any special equipment with them.

If you require any additional information, please contact any of the tour staff: Mr Matthew Sloan (matthew.sloan@ststephens.wa.edu.au); Mrs Hannah Uglow (hannah.uglow@ststephens.wa.edu.au); Mr Ted Lewis (ted.lewis@ststephens.wa.edu.au); or Mrs Kim Luinstra (kimberley.luinstra@ststephens.wa.edu.au).

We look forward to seeing you all at these sessions,

The 2021 Year 6 Kimberley Tour Staff Team
