Year 7 Camp Week Salesian Immersion

In recent years the College has been developing ways that students can learn about the history of Dominic College and the experiences of its students. A successful innovation has been the introduction of a Salesian Immersion program during the Tear 7 Camp Week. While two of the four House groups are attending camp, the other two Houses undertake activities including a History Walk, Salesian games, art and journals, cooking "dodgers" and potatoes in the ashes and a drama intensive "In Their Shoes".

Wine. Cheese. Hard Times.

The original odd couple, Oscar and Felix, have been rewritten and now Olive and Florence are the incompatible room-mates, forced to share an apartment and learn about the strains that domesticity can extract on even the strongest friendship.
