12ODE -Outdoor Education - NCEA Level 2*

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr A. Venter.

Outdoor Education at Level 2 focuses the development of leadership, communication and organisational skills through experiences in a range of outdoor activities or pursuits. At the same time, students get to explore some amazing parts of Aotearoa.

While engaged in these outdoor activities or pursuits, students will learn about safety management systems and the key skills needed to be successful in these activities. Both leadership and safety management skills will be internally assessed in units covered throughout the year. Students are also practically assessed on one outdoor experience that is linked to an achievement standard.

Students also learn essential life skills including social and cooperative skills, problem solving, initiative and self management that are intertwined in Outdoor Education.
