About Me

Mungalli Falls loves school camps. We fell that all children should get the chance to expereience a camp at Mungalli Falls. Enabling individuals to have the chance to be away from home, the comforts and normallity of daily live, to sharing experiences and memories with their peers in a unique environment. Getting the opportunity to challenge themselves physically and mentally. Sharing experiences with others, creating stronger social bonds. These are just a couple of positives achieved at a Mungalli Falls camp.

October has been Wicked Fun at Mungalli

October has been pretty awesome, if you have been following the Facebook page you will see that we have had some pretty cool schools visiting.
We managed to keep nearly up to date with the Facebook page but life has been so fun and hectic we have barley had time to blog about these schools.

These are the schools that have recently spent time at Camp Mungalli.

Gilroy this school came to Mungalli Falls to work on their Leadership skills, they spend some time working on personal challenges and they also took time out to work with the Mungalli staff.   I am proud of  some of their leadership skills, as they took part in some on site quick problem solving techniques to enable them to still do the Landslide.

Our Lady of Sacred Heart (OLSH) were a pretty amazing group, they were here during a time that Frankie was sightly ill and I loved the care and compassion that these school children showed.

This week we also had a small group from Cairns Adventist they ran around conquering a lot of challenges and activities with various activity staff.  We sadly were unable to get photo of this group.

Ryan Catholic school had there Year 12 Leadership camp here, this was run by Alistair from the school and he has a very organised well run program that works well fro everyone involved.  Mungalli always loves the year 12 camp as the group has a very formal dinner on the last night.  This year is was slightly wet but I don't believe it dampened the mood.  The group looked amazing. 

Whilst this school was here we also had a day visit from one an International school.  This made for an interesting day, as we had about 500 people on site for Breakfast and Dinner.  Whilst this day trip was here we tried to achieve as much as possible, the Mungalli Staff had group sizes of 40 to look after with the assistance from some Japanese staff.  In the photo you will see Hiro one of our main Japanese employees and he is surrounded by Japanese students.

Biboohra were only here last week and these guys were easy to look after, a small group which is always a pleasure as Mungalli Staff have the opportunity to really engage with the group.  We had some pretty cool fun with this school.

Holy Cross also came to Mungalli at the end of October, we done some classic activities working on the team building skills, developing their archery techniques, they conquered the Obstacle and of course they experienced the Landslide.  This school over came some unique challenges on the camp whilst they were at Mungalli and we cannot wait to have this school back next year.
