2008 was the first year of implementation. The first WACE examinations for Outdoor Education will be conducted in 2009.
Through interaction with the natural world, Outdoor Education aims to develop an understanding of our relationships with the environment, others and ourselves. The course focuses on outdoor activities in a range of environments including bushwalking, sailing, caving, climbing and orienteering. It provides students with an opportunity to develop essential life skills and physical activity skills, and an opportunity to develop a comprehensive understanding of the environment and develop a positive relationship with nature.
