At St Philip’s Christian College Gosford we offer a
range of co-curricular activities to complement the
academic life of our students. A holistic approach
to education develops well-rounded, resilient and
connected students. Students are strongly encouraged
to be involved in these opportunities as they provide
an important balance to the academic program at the
College.
We believe participating in some of these activities
enables students to express themselves in different
ways outside the formal timetable. It offers students the
chance to explore areas of personal interest and develop
interpersonal skills as they connect with students from
other year groups.
Some of these activities include fitness training sessions,
sport specific skill development programs, board games,
musical tutoring and band practice, sporting teams and
study skills.
Camps are an integral part of our College Pastoral Care
Program. The main purpose of camps is to establish
relationships, build group identity, develop skills through
challenging outdoor activities and enhance community
living skills. Camps are progressively challenging as
students advance through their years at the College.
Camps range from curriculum based camps, such as
visits to Canberra through to outdoor recreation
camps in Junior, Middle and Senior Schools as well as an
‘Amazing Race’ style camp in Senior School.
