The grade 9 students have an incredible 9-day camping experience where they work together in teams to navigate a significant portion of Phuket's coastline. The journey is designed to have the students paddle a distance cumulatively from Ao Por Pier to South Kamala Beach, covering over 70km with various stops along the way. The students will use the paddles they crafted themselves during their Technology and Design class, which adds a personal touch to the trip.

During their expedition, the students will not only have an adventure but also dedicate a day to a mangrove planting service project, the space they will have spent so much time in and giving back to the community. They also spend a day amongst the picturesque islands of Phang Nga, taking in the beautiful sights and sounds.

The journey is a culmination of a lot of preparation from across the semester, where students train and develop skills in camping, kayaking, and leadership ability in their Experiential Learning class. The students will be able to put these skills to the test on this incredible expedition. 

Throughout their journey, grade 9 students will be able to further develop their personal responsibility skills and through this experience, they will learn how to take ownership of their actions, make responsible choices, and be accountable for their decisions. 

By practicing personal responsibility, the students will be able to develop important life skills that will serve them well beyond their expedition. This camp experience never fails in helping create a positive and supportive environment where everyone will feel valued and respected.
