02 Jul Year 12 Zionist Camp
Our recent Year 12 Zionist Camp was a massive success, leaving students inspired, reflective, and deeply connected to their Jewish identity. Over the course of the camp, students engaged in thoughtful and meaningful discussions about G-d, morality, Israel, and the values that will guide them as they step into life beyond school.
A key focus of the camp was encouraging students to think about how they will maintain their Jewish identity after graduation. Through dynamic and creative programs, they explored what it means to live a meaningful Jewish life in the wider world.
Alongside these serious and enriching conversations, there was also time for fun, connection, and nostalgia. Students enjoyed celebrating their final camp together, sharing memories from their schooling, and taking the opportunity to reflect on their journey so far.
It was a beautiful and moving experience, and we are so proud of our Year 12s for the maturity, curiosity, and ruach they brought to the camp.
Special thanks must go to all the staff involved in camp – to Morah Shula, Rabbi Cowen, Jaimee, Ms. Switalo, Ruby, Ilan, Natan and Raph – thank you for your unwavering commitment to the students and the success of the camp. We can’t wait for the rest of Zio Camps in Term 3!
