This week 500 Year 9s head out on Explore and Expeditions as a key part of Haileybury’s remarkable co-curricular program which provides a huge range of learning experiences across all our year levels.
Haileybury started the program 25 years ago and it has been an integral part of student experiences since. An annual review of the Year 9 program ensures it evolves to offer ever more exciting opportunities that are relevant for student growth and development.
This year’s opportunities are some of the most exciting offered and with the cross over between Term 2 and Term 3 experiences each student gets to choose one Explore and One Expedition.

The program requires and an incredible effort from the Haileybury staff including Deputy Principal Diane Furusho and Head of Year 9 Aidan Ryan. The teaching staff of Haileybury are dedicated to the program and it only proceeds because of their great commitment to a positive student experience.
The programs are designed to immerse students in experiential learning opportunities that foster holistic development outside the classroom. They are based on the Haileybury student pillars of educational excellence, social justice, enterprise and entrepreneurship, and an international outlook.
A key focus of the preparation of the trips and the manner in which they are conducted is of respectful relationships, giving students the opportunity to develop positive relationships with a range of students in unique environments.
