ADVENTURE AWAITS
At Mt Binga, students don’t just step out of their comfort zone – they discover who they really are. It’s no surprise that when we ask our graduates about their most cherished school memory, Mt Binga is almost always the answer. Nestled in the picturesque South Burnett region, this unique outdoor education campus has been transforming Immanuel students’ lives for over 30 years.
THE MT BINGA JOURNEY
Your child’s Mt Binga adventure evolves throughout their Immanuel journey. It starts with an exciting 4-day experience in Year 5, where students first discover the magic of this special place. By Year 7, they’re ready for a more challenging 5-day program, building teamwork and resilience. This thoughtful progression prepares them for the life-changing four-week program in Year 10 – an experience our graduates consistently call their most transformative time at Immanuel.
UNPLUGGED AND UNLIMITED
Research shows that time away from technology, combined with immersive outdoor experiences, significantly improves teenage mental health and cognitive development. At Mt Binga, students trade their screens for starlit skies and social media for real conversations. This digital detox creates space for genuine connections – the kind that last long after graduation.
LIFE SKILLS AND LEADERSHIP
Year 9 brings The Rite Journey – our way of helping kids navigate the tricky waters of growing up. It’s not about lectures; it’s about conversations that matter. We talk about the stuff that’s really on their minds – self-worth, relationships, and finding their place in the world.
These activities aren’t just adventures – they’re carefully designed learning experiences that help students develop confidence, resilience, and practical skills they’ll use for life. From cooking their first damper to conquering the high ropes course, every achievement builds their belief in themselves and their capabilities.
At Mt Binga, every visit builds essential life skills through meaningful, hands-on experiences. Students engage in a rich variety of activities that foster independence, teamwork, and personal growth:
