What we will learn?
This course will allow students to build on the knowledge base developed in Year 12 Adventure Based Management or to begin their Outdoor Management journey. It offers a range of Unit Standard assessments and Achievement Standards, all internally assessed throughout the school year.
Students will be expected to take on a leadership role within the class and at times work individually on aspects of their own learning programme. Students will need to be willing to contribute their own time e.g. weekends and after school in order to complete the practical component associated with the assessment tasks. The 2024 year course will focus on kayaking, climbing and snow craft, along with leadership in the outdoors, developing tramping skills as a member of a small group and performing physical skill/s to a national standard.
The costs associated with this course will be dependent on the number of practicals completed and the instructors fees associated with the physical skill achievement standard, 3.4. As our school has opted into the School Donations Scheme. This means there are rules for which we can request donations. One of those areas we will ask for a contribution to the costs is for school camps/overnight trips. Adventure Based Management requires many experiences outside the classroom and while we will not be asking for any contributions to trips held during the day we do seek support for contributing to the costs of overnight trips and camps. We have done our best to provide students with an exciting outdoor education programme as well as keeping costs to a minimum.
Students are welcome to also participate in NCEA Level 3 Physical Education as the course content is different.
