PacBrook Quiet Space and Learning Enrichment

Creative Retreat

In addition to outdoor activities that students enjoy, Pacific Brook provides for the needs of students who appreciate a serene zone to enjoy activities. Our PacBrook Quiet Space allows students to retreat during break times and enjoy boosted learning with reading, playing boardgames and being creative with colouring in and drawing.

Reading Challenge

To enrich learning, Pacific Brook offers the NSW Premier’s Reading Challenge (PRC) for students in years K-10. The Challenge fosters the love of reading opens their world to quality literature. Rather than it being contest-based, the challenge invites students to develop the love of reading by reading more stories and reading wider.

Your child can also excel in the various in-class co-curricular activities.

Outdoor Education Activities

Outdoor Education activities are an important part of learning and development as well as being extracurricular opportunities for our students. Spending time in God’s creation, gaining cultural awareness, growing in interpersonal relationship skills and developing leadership abilities are all part of outdoor extracurricular education engagement.

Central to our Outdoor Education program are annual school camps. Stage 2-stage 6 students all participate in our school camps as a compulsory activity. Students explore outdoor activities, learn new skills, establish social bonds, learn to take responsibility, and they encounter new and exciting experiences.
