The High School students went on camp in St Lucia in KwaZulu Natal. The bus trip was very long, but the ocean and other activities made up for it. The kids enjoyed time on the beach, a boat ride on the St. Lucia River where we saw many crocodiles and hippo’s, the super tube in the town and a trip to Cape Vidal where they snorkelled and investigated the tidal pools.
