Each class engages in a week-long retreat in September. These retreats have included rope courses, rock climbing, scavenger hunts, sailing, and other teambuilding and community-service activities. Through these experiences, students develop the skills necessary to form supportive communities, set and achieve realistic goals, build collaboration, and develop problem-solving strategies.

In addition, each class takes an overnight trip in the spring supporting the goals of the program. Grade 6 students participate in a STEM trip, Grade 7 and Grade 8 students travel to France in 2022–2023.

These programs reinforce our classroom curriculum and build confidence and independence in our students.
