Caves' school schedule winding down!


The summer months are well and truly upon us and Christmas is just around the corner... meaning day visits and school camps to the Capricorn Caves are winding down for another year.

But what a year it's been!

2010 has seen no less than 80 school groups experience all there is to offer at the Capricorn Caves; from standards including adventure caving, cathedral tours and the high ropes course, to initiatives challenges, environment presentations and our ground breaking new geo-tour.

And if you thought it was only local schools taking advantage of our state of the
art camp and lodging facilities... think again!

This year schools from as far as Gympie and Ayr have made the trek to Capricornia and word is spreading with schools from across the border now expressing interest in a Capricorn Caves experience.

This week though it's been the sixteen students from Avondale State School, west of Agnes Water, that have kept staff on their toes.

After a hearty morning schedule of adventure caving and the always popular crate climb, the students - ranging from grades 4, 5, 6 and 7 - will have the afternoon to relax before a night tour and camp fire round out their stay at the Capricorn Caves.

80 schools down, four to go... until next year that is!
