Year 11 Chang Retreat

From the 11th March to the 12th March 2021, Year 11 Chang and four teachers Mrs Desira, Mrs Thomson, Mrs O’Hare and Mr Ison, went to Winbourne, Mulgoa for our Year 11 house retreat. Upon arrival, we got settled into our rooms and had morning tea before we settled into the hall for our group activities. Throughout our stay, we not only got to bond with one another, but were also granted the opportunity to reflect on ourselves whilst focusing on the core theme “Our Road To Emmaus”. We listened to testimonies, went to reconciliation with Father Flor, and spent our free time by hanging out with one another around the venue. 

Each teacher did their part  to help us further understand ourselves as an individual, as a group and encourage us to participate, feel at home with each other making the experience such a meaningful and engaging memory to always remember. In the end, it was one of the best experiences Chang has had in a while; the way everyone bonded through the activities and reflections was a true representation of our St Andrews community. Thank you to all the teachers who assisted in organising this event, your effort in running these events are greatly appreciated
