Located in the Yarra Valley, this campus serves as a hub for our junior and middle school students, offering tailored programs that progressively build upon each other, as students advance through the years. Activities are designed to challenge and engage students and teachers, and takes place in the natural environment, promoting adventure-based experiences that deliberately push students outside their perceived limits. By doing so, we encourage our students to rewrite their understanding of their own capabilities, learn about the impact they can make, and instil a sense of responsibility for a sustainable future.  

Additionally, the campus serves as a working Dairy Farm, where students assist with milking and farm operations.
