The educational activities have been designed to compliment OEG’s mission to prepare young people for the personal, social and environmental challenges in their lives. The classes aim to:

  • Promote independence, teamwork and personal responsibility,
  • Enhance self awareness and the growth of positive self concept,
  • Encourage and educate sustainable ecological interaction and understanding,
  • Utilise the environment to extend curriculum based learning and understanding.

Each program is designed to facilitate experiential learning outcomes through community living in small self sustainable groups, managing resources (food, water, firewood etc) and participating in outdoor activities such as canoeing, abseiling, mountain biking, hiking, bush navigation, overnight expedition and camping, orienteering, and environmental appreciation.

Programs at Biloela can be designed to meet your school’s curriculum and philosophical needs.

Biloela provides an ideal environment to escape from the hustle and bustle of every day life; to go without modern technologies and other luxuries which living in the 21st century provide.

The Biloela experience, including the tranquillity and splendour of the Biloela surroundings, combined with the carefully designed programs have been developed to draw students close to nature and encourage social interaction, reflection and discussion.
