Camping Group

The camping group SJHSCG has been on the go since 1997. We have had many, many memorable trips over the years. If you were a pupil on any of those, then yes, we are still running them and the formula has not changed much over the years.  If you are interested in joining, just ask Ms Bruce, Mrs Skinner, Mr. Bicket, Mr. McGinlay,  Mr. Morton - all of whom have been on camping trips. If you are a staff member, then we are always keen to welcome a new pair of helping hands, provided you can pitch a tent and dig a latrine trench.

Tentipi: Almost fully pitched, still needs guy ropes, which give more space internally as well as stabilising against wind.Tentipi: Almost fully pitched, still needs guy ropes, which give more space internally as well as stabilising against wind.
