Kilvington prides itself on producing girls with 'character' - strong values, resilience, independence and the motivation to be actively involved in life and the opportunities on offer.  Camps are one of the ways in which we achieve this.

For one week each year Kilvington students are on camp at a destination within Victoria.  Camps start at Year 3 and go through to Year 12. The focus of each experience varies according to students' ages and stages of development and provides the opportunity for them to do something new, different and inspiring. They may water ski, scale rock faces, build rafts, surf, bike ride and take part in leadership courses.

Students are able to develop new skills in the supportive and encouraging environment provided by the outdoor education staff.

The benefits are far reaching - they include  increased independence, becoming more self reliant and resilient.  Sharing the experience with others encourages team work strategies and learning to be flexible; skills essential in todays changing world. Girls develop an understanding of self, others and nature. Apart from personal skills, the camps are integrated into the curriculum in a number of ways ranging from geography to photography and English.

The camp program at Kilvington is constantly reviewed and enhanced to meet the needs of the girls at their particular stage of development.
