Leadership in Action students will take part in a two-day camp, hiking for up to 4-6 hours hiking each day as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award, and will navigate in groups to The Pinnacles Hut, where they will cook group dinner, breakfast and lunch. Students will put into practise the learning they have around Navigation, Bushcraft and Tramping as part of their class learnings.

Leadership In Action promotes students' leadership and decision-making abilities in a variety of activities designed to challenge them mentally, emotionally and physically.

Students will be assessed on how well they demonstrate leadership in action, which will include establishing personal goals and plans, managing projects, and setting high personal standards.

Pre-requisites to take part in the Leadership in Action course include being interested in the outdoors and having a commitment to developing leadership potential.
