End-of-Year Trip for Year 10

End-of-Year Trip for Year 10

After a very challenging year, students deserved a reward of enjoying perfectly sunny days in the surroundings of the Savinja Valley. On the first day, it was straight off the bus and straight on to the rafts for wild water, followed by some adrenaline rush on the tree tops of the campsite’s adventure park. Camp Menina has its own lake and it provided much needed refreshment from the scorching heat. Second day continued by water activities. Dressed in neoprene, students headed off to the gorge Cuc for canyoning. They experienced abseiling and descending through a range of challenging terrain, all together 500 m of altitude change. In the afternoon, the torrents of the local waterfalls were replaced by the tranquility of the camp lake. SUP polo tournament brought out the competitive spirit of all involved. Both evenings were filled with on-court football, badminton, basketball and frisbee. On the last day, we were invited to B/S/H factory in Nazarje to see how industry has played a vital part in this region of Slovenia as an important employer and a key organisation within the community.
