With the outdoor pursuit instructors support, students learn about their place in the local landscape. The main aim is for each student to discover more about themselves and fellow peers through the provision of adventurous and challenging activities in a variety of environmental and social contexts. All activities are within the Hauraki whenua and include: trekking, navigation, long distant runs, waka ama, mountain biking, fishing, surfing, survival camping, and bushcraft skills. Outdoor pursuits prepare students for a three day expedition, and overnight solo experience.
