Mentone Girls’ Grammar Portland Year 8 Camp
"School camps can be an overwhelming endeavour - HOWEVER - if you go with Infuse Travel you will seriously have nothing to worry about! The staff are wonderful, with every team leader committed to ensuring every student has a wholesome and positive experience. I may be biased, but combine this with one of the greatest cohorts of Year 8s and it results in the best camp ever!"
The experience
Infuse Travel spent a week with the Year 8's from Mentone Girls' Grammar, in the surrounds of Portland in Southwest Victoria.


The Year 8 'Take The Leap' Program is part of Infuse's suite of Year 7-10 programs designed in conjunction with Mentone Girls' Grammar School, encompassing Central Australia, South East Queensland, the Grampians and Portland. All programs foster rich experiential learning and support the students on their journey to becoming thoughtful and compassionate leaders.
In Portland, our school teams embarked on an exciting intro to outdoor life and adventure! Our campers traversed stunning landscapes on a 2-day, 2-night hike, explored wondrous cave systems, headed out on awe-inspiring seal spotting expeditions and fine tuned their surfing skills at Bridgewater Bay. Experiencing many diverse national parks along the way, students also learned about the traditional owners of the land, the Gunditjimara people.
“Whilst enjoying the picturesque surroundings the students tested their comfort levels and gave their adrenaline a rush by participating in caving explorations, speedy boat rides to seal colonies (and even to dolphin pods for a lucky few!) as well as putting their surfing skills to the test. However, the biggest challenge was found in the three day-two night hike, where students had to trek for many kilometres whilst carrying all their equipment needs. This challenge gave every student a sense of achievement, which they have been able to bring back with them and apply to school life.
It was the physical challenges along with the new connections made in a very supportive environment that sums up the transformative experience that the Infuse staff achieved for every participant, making this camp a true success. The ‘closing ceremony’ truly is a special moment where students reflect on how they are now all connected through their experience, with the demonstration of the ‘string’, where everyone takes a part of that ‘string’ to create a bracelet, a tangible symbol of a very special time together.”
Rita Czwarno, Head of Year 8, Mentone Girls’ Grammar
