In 2024 the Awards Committee recognised 11 Exemplary Outdoor Education Programs: UCSSC Lake Ginninderra was one of the recipients.
Over more than 25 years the UCSSC Lake Ginninderra Outdoor Education (OE) Program has consistently delivered the best possible outcomes in OE for students including academic achievement (ATARs and Year 12 Certificates), VET certification, the development of outstanding capabilities in leadership and teamwork, developing a love for natural environments, skills for a wide range of adventure activities, increased wellbeing and lifelong passion for the outdoors.
These wonderful outcomes for students have extended far beyond the College. Each major development associated with the LGC OE Program has been part of a dedicated, innovative and courageous response to major challenges.
The program has provided a critical focal point and outstanding leadership in Outdoor Education in the ACT, the wider outdoor industry, teacher education and educational research. All this is conducted within a spirit and culture of committed contribution, generosity and welcoming inclusion.
